Why we made it

Why We Made Talonmore

Over 8 million adults in the UK are choosing to drink less. We made Talonmore for them, and for ourselves.

We wanted the depth and warmth of a proper after dinner drink, without the alcohol.

The Family Behind It

We're not a distillery and we're not a fund. We're a family. Lewis founded Talonmore in Edinburgh in 2020, and his parents Fraser and Julie joined as co founders shortly after. When you read "we" on this site, it's the three of us.

How it's made

Brewed in Scotland, Not Distilled

Most alcohol free spirits are made by distilling a traditional spirit and then stripping the alcohol back out. Talonmore is different. We brew with Scottish water and four plant ingredients, in small batches, at a SALSA certified production site in Edinburgh.

There is no ethanol at any stage of the process, which is why we can put 0.0% ABV on the bottle. The company is small on purpose: small batches mean we can taste every release before it goes out.

The Name, and Why an Eagle

Talonmore takes its name from the strength of an eagle and its touchpoint with the land's natural ingredients. The eagle's talon, the part that reaches down to the earth, became our mascot. It stands for power, freedom, and the link between sky and soil.

Our strap line, "Dare to Explore," comes from the same idea. Drinking less should never mean settling. It should mean choosing more carefully, and finding more interesting drinks along the way.
