Cheshire Botanicals has launched onto the market with its debut tipple Nantwich Gin, a signature London dry that celebrates the historic market town.
The drink has been developed in honour of Royal herbalist and renowned Dabber John Gerard.
Nantwich Gin is a fusion of herbs, citrus and floral notes.
Its distinctive bottle has been designed with the help of a local artist to reflect the town’s Tudor architecture.
And Cheshire Botanicals is making its first batch along with a selection of limited-edition rewards, available to supporters of its crowdfunding campaign which closes in late November.
Holly Challinor, Cheshire Botanicals’ Head Distiller, said: “We wanted our first gin to be a love letter to the town of Nantwich – its stories, personalities, history and culture.
“I grew up around here and the town has been home to some incredible people; people who were innovators of their time and leading names in science, horticulture and botany.
“With a nod to these local heroes and the incredible floral displays that we see every year, we’re using cutting-edge science and technology to craft the finest quality gin, with a bouquet and finish that’s rooted in nature, yet elevated through innovation.”
The company took more than a year to develop and refine the precise recipe to Nantwich Gin, using cutting-edge iStill technology.
Lemon thyme, lavender and pink peppercorns blend with the heavy juniper notes.
In the competitive craft gin market, Cheshire Botanicals sources its ingredients from British suppliers, with a long-term commitment to make the operation as sustainable as possible.
Some of the core botanical notes are grown on-site, using futuristic indoor farming techniques that provide consistent, year-round access to natural ingredients that are packed with flavour.
Challinor added: “Creating this gin has been a personal labour of love and we wanted to do everything possible to create the local tribute that we originally dreamed of.
“Blending art and science was the best way to achieve this and we can’t wait to share it with the world!”
Nantwich Gin is available to pre-order now through Crowdfunder UK and will ship before Christmas.
