Bain's

Inspired by the Cape Mountains and its natural beauty, Bain’s Single Grain Whisky is the first of its kind in South Africa. It pays tribute to the man, Andrew Geddes Bain, who built the Bainskloof Pass that connects the town of Wellington, where our distillery is located, to the interior of the country back in 1853.

The success of Bain’s Single Grain Whisky comes down to one, innovative man and his passion for perfection, Master Distiller Andy Watts. In 1991, Andy became only the sixth manager of the home of Bain’s, The James Sedgwick Distillery, since its establishment in 1886. In the quarter century that he’s been there, he has become a world renowned Whisky Master, by winning countless awards and accolades.
