EP27 | Eileen Ferguson | Whisky, Wooler and Northumbrian Hospitality | Local Heroes Podcast

In this episode of Local Heroes, we sit down with Eileen Ferguson, the Co-Founder of the award-winning Ad Gefrin Distillery in Wooler. For Eileen, the distillery isn’t just a business, it’s a promise kept. Ad Gefrin stands as a testament to her father’s wish: to give something lasting back to the people of Wooler.

Eileen shares how her upbringing on a farm shaped her love of food, family, and place, and how those values carried her through the challenges of building a distillery from the ground up. She talks about the lockdown 'Zoom Dinners' that brought her family together, and the iconic haggis pie that took centre stage. This conversation is full of warmth and honesty, touching on the importance of place in food memories, the strength of family ties, and the legacy she hopes Ad Gefrin will leave behind.

It’s not just about whisky, it’s about people, place, purpose and community. So grab yourself a glass, settledown and enjoy this inspiring conversation with one of the region's true local heroes.
