“We want to break down that stigma and use amazing local produce for the spirits.”
At Wee they are all about showcasing the versatility of the hemp plant. Hemp unfortunately has really been up against it in recent decades and Wee are here to show just how wonderful this underdog of a plant really is.
The endless list of uses for hemp is mind-blowing, from its extensive healing properties, dietary uses, textiles, paper, fabric, fuel oil, to even a biodegradable plastic replacement- just to name a few uses- this plant can really do it all & as well as help the environment!!
Co founder Rebecca has many intolerances & allergies & is sensitive to alcohol, Wee wanted to make a drink that she can enjoy without it effecting her too negativity.
The concept came to us one day whilst we were out exploring our favourite local area- The Cairngorms National Park.
How could we celebrate this natures larder that’s available on our doorstep, whilst showcasing the many uses of the hemp plant?
Then it came to them –Wee are proud to introduce:
Canna’B Rum and Canna’B Gin.
The Canna’B Rum
This Wee batch, artisan Rum is delicately infused, balanced & wrapped in hemp (cannabis sativa L) & hemp seeds from The Wee Hemp Company, coupled with award winning bell heather honey & ancient spring water both sourced along Royal Deeside, Scotland. Aged in charred hemp stalks – A worlds first!
The result? A light smoky, yet sweet finish.
A truly unique, smooth, creamy & full-bodied experience.
The Canna’B Gin
This Wee batch, artisan Gin is delicately infused, balanced & wrapped in hemp (cannabis sativa L) & hemp seeds from The Wee Hemp Company,

“We wanted to create a drinking experience like no other, one that can be savoured and enjoyed.
“We have used it in the CBD but it has so many other uses and it is one of the key things we want to try to get across to people.
“It can be used as a botanical in the ageing process. This is the start of our new business adventure and we’ll look at other ways it could be possibly used.
