Stiller

The brand launched its first two spirits in 2019, making Stiller's one of the earlier independent producers to enter the dedicated AF botanical spirit space in the UK. Both spirits are distilled in copper pot stills using organic botanicals, with no added sugar and no artificial flavours. The range spans contrasting botanical directions, from spiced, earthy profiles built around warm aromatics, through to fresh, herbal character centred on juniper and citrus, giving the compact portfolio a clear internal flavour logic despite its small scale.

The Wye Valley setting is not incidental to the brand's identity. Stiller's presents itself as a place-rooted producer drawing character from the Welsh borders, and the family-owned, small-batch structure keeps production closely controlled. Copper pot distillation, a method that allows close attention to each batch's aromatic development, is the production backbone throughout.

For sober-curious drinkers who want something genuinely complex in the glass, Stiller's occupies an interesting position: a micro-scale producer working with organic ingredients and a documented distillation method, at a time when many AF spirit entrants are larger commercial operations. The premium price point reflects both the small-batch scale and the use of organic botanicals throughout the range.

Distribution spans mainstream supermarket shelving alongside specialist alcohol-free retailers, placing Stiller's in a mid-tier accessibility bracket: easier to find than many micro-producers, but not yet at the scale of the category's larger names.
