The Spirit
England has a great tradition of using honey in alcoholic drinks – just think of mead. Honeybee is distilled using 28 natural botanicals, including cardamom from Guatemala, angelica root from Holland, black pepper from Vietnam and cinnamon from Sri Lanka, along with local elderflower, Italian juniper and Spanish orange. But the star of this batch is the infusion of local honey, much of it from Warner Edwards’ own hives. Each bottle comes with a packet of wildflower seeds supplied by the Royal Horticultural Society, so you too can create your own bee sanctuary in your garden. This delicious gin has a slight natural sweetness so it is perfect for summer party cocktails such as Buzzecco made with, you guessed it, Prosecco! Also great over ice.
"It’s not rocket science, we are just two guys trying to make awesome gin"
Tom Warner, Sion Edwards
