“We power our still the traditional way, burning locally sourced hard wood in a vintage steam boiler. Using fresh spring water pumped from the Silent Pool, and the finest 24 botanicals using locally sourced such as Lavender whenever possible. We have succeeded in creating a smooth, full-flavoured gin that is traditional yet refreshingly individual. Come have a taster at the next Hampshire Farmers’ Markets, we promise you won’t be disappointed!”
