Meet the Team

Su’s passion for distilling is palpable and we are delighted to have her on board. She has an impressive nose for botanicals and is full of ideas for different variations of Kintyre Gin.

Niall is possibly the busiest person in Kintyre. As well as running Torrisdale Castle Estate, he is a consultant land agent for CKD Galbraith and serves on several local boards as a volunteer. Kintyre Gin is his latest baby!

Niall’s brother Kenny owns Offshoot Design, a successful Glasgow based agency. He designed our fantastic branding and brings invaluable creative input to Kintyre Gin. Although residing in Fife, he makes regular trips to Torrisdale with his young family.

Emma is Niall’s wife and helps out with social media and marketing. Despite what Niall says, this is not an excuse to spend all day on Facebook. In her spare time she is chained to the ironing board pressing holiday linen for the self-catering business.

Lynsey joined the team in 2021 and is a fantastic assistant to Su. She seizes every opportunity to fly up and down hillsides on a mountain bike and is also a brilliant golfer and came runner up in the World Skimming Championships at Easdale in 2019. An all round high achiever!

Louise is joining us for the summer season while we are open 7 days a week. She finished school in Campbeltown earlier this year and heads off to Edinburgh in September to study Geography.

Jo is with us for a year as a graduate and is in charge of organising lots of fun things at the distillery! She is also tasked with looking after our visitors and making sure they have an unforgettable experience with us.
She hails from Greece but has adapted brilliantly to our Argyll climate!

Crumble's main role is to greet visitors and sit on their feet so they can't leave. Her favourite game is 'Where's Su?' (See insta stories). She is a much loved, if very needy, member of the team.
