 Arbikie Highland Estate is celebrating its first birthday with the release of a Chilli Vodka.

The distillery has infused its award-winning vodka with chipotle chillis grown by Scotland's first Chilli farm, Chillilicious.

Arbikie launched last November with Scotland's first potato vodka, which went on to win 'Best Vodka' at the Paris Cocktail Awards.

In July it released 'Kirsty's Gin', named after its master distiller Kirsty Black. Kirsty's Gin is Scotland's first single estate gin.

Both Arbikie Vodka and Kirsty's Gin took home gold medals from the 2015 China Wine & Spirits Awards.

The company has also laid down its first casks of single malt whisky using grain grown on the estate.

John Stirling, Arbikie's operations director, said: "It's been a great year for Arbikie. Having launched Scotland's first potato vodka, a gin, whisky in cask and now our new chilli vodka. We've been busy to say the least.

"We've got some exciting plans for the next year and we hope to continue our growth in the UK as well as overseas."
