The Wiltshire Whisky Distillery Co.

Our Brands

Witchmark is the brand name we have chosen to represent the range of whiskies and white spirits that we will be making at our distillery. The name comes from the medieval witch marks carved into the stone walls and oak beams in the buildings we call home, designed to ward off evil spirits and protect those working and living inside.

Stone Daisy is our beer brand. Witch marks are often referred to as hexafoils or daisy wheels and with our 'daisy wheels' carved in stone, Stone Daisy was an obvious name for the brewery that not only produces the beer wash that is distilled to make our whisky new make spirit but also our range of cask, keg, canned and bottled beers.
