Penderyn Distillery opened its doors to visitors in June 2008. The distillery is the only one in Wales and the first to legally distil a whisky spirit in the country for more than 100 years. Members of the public can visit the distillery and experience the distilling and bottling process.

In our Visitor Centre you can:

• See an exhibition of the history of whisky making in Wales including the last genuine Welsh Whisky from Frongoch, near Bala N.Wales
• View the distillation process at Penderyn that was designed by Dr David Faraday, a descendant of famous physicist Sir Michael Faraday
• Have an opportunity to understand the use of water and wood in making whisky
• View of the bottling line and bottling process
• Relax in the tasting room and sample the spirits
• Visit our retail shop for purchase of Penderyn Spirits and merchandise.

Penderyn Distillery is one of the smallest distilleries in the world and one of the few remaining independent distilleries

Sample Local Event

The charming old market town of Brecon is regarded as one of the most historic locations of settlements in Wales and today hosts a wide range of events throughout the year. Known best for The Brecon Jazz Festival in the Summer the town also has a Baroque Festival in October as well as an eclectic mix of gigs in the pubs and a good calendar of musical experiences at both Brecon Cathedral and Theatr Brycheiniog all year round.

The art galleries of the town work togther to offer you the Artbeat Trail and in 2010 hosted the first ever Brecon Art week which will be returning in 2011.

The town has a Farmers Market twice a month but is lucky enough to have 3 butchers, a fishmonger and fresh veg stall open all week – buying good, locally sourced food is never a problem.

As well as the theatre with it’s weekly programme, jazz and comedy club and top floor gallery there is also a cinema with showings every day except Mondays.
