About us
At Distillers Direct, we believe exceptional spirits should be easy to discover, easy to order, and delivered directly to your door.
Founded by Craig Harris and Anna Werstyn, Distillers Direct is a small independent family business built from a shared passion for premium spirits, great hospitality, and helping customers discover drinks they genuinely love. What began as a small venture has grown into one of the UK’s leading online spirits retailers — without losing the personal touch, family values, and enthusiasm that inspired it from day one.
With decades of combined experience in the drinks and hospitality industry, Craig and Anna have built Distillers Direct on genuine product knowledge, trusted supplier relationships, and a deep understanding of what customers are looking for. Their experience spans everything from premium spirits retail and distribution to hospitality and customer service, helping shape the carefully curated range and expert approach the business is known for today.
Since launching in 2015, Craig and Anna have focused on creating a business that combines expert knowledge, carefully selected products, competitive pricing, and genuinely personal customer service. As a family-run company, they take pride in offering a more personal experience, where customers are treated as more than just order numbers.
At Distillers Direct, we specialise in sourcing exceptional spirits from around the world — from iconic whiskies and small-batch gins to premium rums, tequilas, liqueurs, and exciting craft producers. We work closely with distilleries, importers, and independent brands to offer a collection that is both diverse and constantly evolving.
For Craig and Anna, it’s never just been about selling bottles. It’s about sharing the stories, craftsmanship, and passion behind every spirit we stock. Whether you’re searching for a trusted favourite, a unique gift, or something completely new to explore, the team at Distillers Direct is dedicated to helping you find the perfect bottle.
