  • Feathers Gin List Updated 13Th November
    Humphrey Bogart in Casablanca “Of all the Gin joints in all the world she had to walk into mine” Welcome, To the Wonderful World of Gin… Gin started life in the early 17th century in Holland, although claims have been made that it was produced prior to this in Italy. WC Fields would start the day with two double martinis, enjoyed either side of his breakfast. He drank about two quarts of gin a day. Every Gin brand has its own unique fragrance; most consumers have probably only tasted a small number of the gin brands available. In ours there are more than 60 different Gin brands, from 9 different countries; offering a wide spectrum of fragrances, using different botanicals and infusion methods in all shapes and sizes. Gin is distilled differently. Premium Gins are distilled 3 to 5 times to remove impurities; each brand has a unique formula that provides its special characteristics. The favourite drink of former President Gerald Ford is Gin and Tonic. Gin is the only alcohol liquor that was first developed as a medicine remedy before it became popular as a social drink. “Mother’s Ruin” a term that came from British soldiers taste for Gin when home on leave from the World War II, and the maternal state it induced in the women who shared their off-duty conviviality. William of Orange prohibited the importing of alcohol to England in the early 18th Century encouraging the production and consumption of English Gin. The excessive consumption that followed gave rise to the name Gin Craze.

  • The Great Chase
    “At Chase Distillery we produce only the very finest spirits. We have been awarded world's best tasting vodka, we make the most complex and elegant gin in the world, and we are British. We grow our own raw materials and we distil and hand bottle all of our products from our family owned single estate farm in Herefordshire. Please do come and visit or email me directly at [email protected], I'd love to hear from you.” WILL’S STORY “I grew up on our family farm Tyrrells in Herefordshire. Wanting to be a farmer from a young age, to grow fresh produce enhanced with the magic earthy smell of planting potatoes into fresh soil in spring was to be my dream career.” Having struggled to make ends meet for many years in my twenties, trying to build a business doing what I loved; farming, I eventually found it best to focus on one thing. I chose potatoes, for good or for bad, trading them to supermarkets to make a living but little more. Life was difficult as a trader. The phone was ringing all day but with constant problems, mainly as a result of the supermarkets pressure to reduce price. I was one day struck with the eureka idea of turning our home-grown potatoes into crisps, aided by the original team on the farm (and some common sense) we established a brand onto the market and Tyrrells was born. As the brand quickly grew (along with my waistline!), I started to look for the next challenge.

  • The Geese & Fountain Gin List
    The Geese & Fountain Gin List Updated July 2020 Aber Falls Orange Marmalade Gin 2.80 The village of Abergwyngregyn is home to the distillery, and sits at the foot of the famous Aber Falls waterfall. Attracting over 50,000 visitors a year, this picturesque spot is easily accessible, just off the A55 and a stone’s throw from the coast. Previously a slate works in the 19th century, a margarine factory during the world wars, and more recently a drinks wholesale depot, the Aber Falls distillery building has been lovingly restored and refurbished, proving the ideal place to create unique spirits and demonstrate the passion and skill in distilling craftsmanship. Aber Falls have made their name as a whisky distillery ("Distyllfa Whisgi") but have introduced a range of contemporary gins, of which the orange marmalade is spectacular. Using Welsh-inspired botanicals to give an authentic sense of place to their spirits, the gin boasts a balance of sweet and bitter orange flavours, with the pine flavour of juniper: a citrus hit with warming aftertaste, guaranteed to tickle your tastebuds. Adnam’s Rising Sun Gin 3.50 Adnam’s are better known for their brewing than their distilling, but the quality in their spirits has been turning heads lately. As the sun rises above the North Sea, the rye in the fields around Adnam’s distillery in Suffolk is amongst the first to enjoy the early morning rays, or so they say. They add Japanese matcha tea and lemongrass to supplement the usual botanicals, making a sharp tasting, refreshing gin. Audemus Pink Pepper Gin 4.25 Launched in 2013, Pink Pepper Gin is distilled in the living room of founder Miko Abouaf's house in the centre of Cognac.

  • Chase Rhubarb Vodka
    Spirit - Vodka Chase Rhubarb Vodka Country: England Region: Herefordshire Producer: Chase Distillers Allergens: Not known Bottle size: 70cl - abv: 40% The farm is based in Herefordshire, a region that boasts some of the richest farmland in the world. King Edward and Lady Claire potatoes are grown for the distillery, as well as cider apples for Naked Chase Apple Vodka and Williams Gin. Having the distillery located on the farm allows them to keep a watchful eye over how the potatoes and apples move from field to bottle. It’s this single-estate approach that makes Chase different. William sourced a traditional type of still to make the vodka base was. To get the best quality, without filtering out all of the character, a bespoke rectifying column was needed. Eventually one was found, made by a great family firm with over 100 years of experience. From the idea in 2004, it took until April fool’s day 2008 to harvest the first of their potatoes, making the first batch of vodka in June 2008. Upon tasting the very first drop from the column before filtering, William was so enamoured and proud of it, he decided to call it Chase Vodka. And so Chase Distillery was born. The next shock was how little volume was produced: 16 tonnes of potatoes made only 1000 litres of alcohol! Which after 40 hours was very disheartening, but it is testament to the quality of our vodka. So with this supreme quality over all of the other mass produced vodka, he was sure it would work The signature spirit.

  • Homegrown Best of the British Isles
    HOMEGROWN BEST OF THE BRITISH ISLES Homegrown | 1 HOMEGROWN BEST OF THE BRITISH ISLES The UK’s drinks industry is lively, strong and distinctive. It’s a great industry to be in, and one to be proud of. From confident upstarts opening bars off the beaten track, to pioneers unafraid to experiment with new flavours in their garden sheds. The scene in the UK is a patchwork of innovation and excellence, filled with bags of classic character. We rightfully spend a lot of time discussing the operators who try something new, who break the mould or take a giant leap forward. Last year we saw pub after restaurant ditch the straw, we saw cocktail bars aiming to close the loop on waste, and we saw licensees look again at the low alcohol products they offer. But the nation’s producers can be just as energetic, innovating to bring us new favourites and enjoying growing export success. This year we want to make some justifiable noise about those that toil to produce the ingredients our industry relies upon and those people that form them into the drinks we love. Homegrown is a celebration of all that the UK drinks industry is, from farmers to brewers and right-through to you. Let’s explore the stories behind your current product range, and find some new favourites for your customers to enjoy in the years to come. A higher proportion of people aged between 18 and 24 prefer to buy UK than those aged 25-34*. We believe this shows increasing consumer demand for local products with provenance and lower environmental impacts.
