Holy Vesper
Botanicals
-
Holy Grass
The hero botanical in our Holy Grass Vodka! It was discovered growing on the banks of nearby Thurso River by Robert Dick, a legendary botanist. It has a wonderful aroma and was once used on church floors to give a sweet, vanilla smell when walked over, thereby earning itself it’s religious moniker. Also known as Anthoxanthum nitens
-
Cinnamon
Cinnamon comes from the inner bark of the tree and was once traded as currency! Nowadays as a popular household spice it adds earthier, warming elements to many dishes. We distil the cinnamon in our Holy Grass Vodka to complement the sweeter vanilla and apple notes.
-
Highland Apples
We use Highland apple juice from Black Isle Berries near Inverness. The freshness of the apple complements the sweeter, vanilla notes of Holy Grass.

I love a martini…and the Holy Vesper didn’t disappoint. As it suggests on the bottle, it’s lovely served very chilled straight from the fridge with a garnish of apple. It’s quite dry, but if you prefer wet it would be easy to add a few more drops of vermouth, although I really didn’t feel the need.
Although it’s only my first bottle, I’m pretty sure there will be another one purchased soon, and I hope the Holy Vesper becomes a permanent fixture on the production list.
I’ve been a fan of Rock Rose Gin and Holy Grass Vodka from Dunnet Bay Distillers since doing the NC500 back in spring 2017. The bottling is unique, and the recyclable refill pouches are great to cut down on waste.

Rather disappointed. The alcohol content is quite low, so this does make a refreshing aperitif. It does take the work out of making one’s own and with the twist of vodka and gin, as well as the martini, it’s and interesting combination. But I mainly tasted gin, and would have liked a bit more punch. So the taste on the palate was rather flat. But the bottle is in the fridge and with this hot weather, i’ll give it another try while I’m basking in the evening sun.
