Nestled in the heart of the outstandingly beautiful North Wessex Downs, creating spirit brands that look, feel and taste irresistible.

Combining years of expertise in producing beautifully crafted gins with our team’s knowledge of brand development and marketing, every gin product we create has a distinctly rich and original personality. We hope you enjoy drinking them as much as we enjoy making them.It took time. We researched numerous methods and techniques, made many gin friends, found ourselves foraging for botanicals, reading all the books and even getting our distilling qualifications along the way. We also found a great use for the honey from our beehives! We are now happily sharing our award-winning, expertly crafted, unique creations with the world.

Our focus is on creating distinctive spirit brands, sumptuous flavours and making them totally and utterly irresistible – both in looks and in flavours.

Our irresistible, award-winning Blowing Stone gin range is inspired by the location of our distillery and the historic events that happened here some 1100 years ago. Most notably the Battle of Ashdown – the decisive conquering of the Vikings by Alfred the Great, saving England from Viking domination. The premise behind our lovingly crafted gins is that to create our rich and distinctive flavours using botanicals that could be found growing wild at the time of the battle – many of which (but not all as you will see!) would have been foraged and eaten as part of the diet for both the Anglo-Saxons and the invading Danish Vikings alike.
