Snowdonia and North Wales are world renowned for the spring waters that come from this region, that have had further purification from its slow journey through the seams of gold that exist within the Clogau shale.
The 2018 Release of Forager's Clogau Reserve Gin uses six botanicals in total. All native to the mountain and coastline of North Wales.A bespoke ration of botanicals, style of distillation and maceration where put together for this 2018 Release by distiller Chris Marshall.
Nestled in the beautiful foothills of Snowdonia you'll find Snowdonia Distillery, home of Forager's Gin and our bespoke copper still 'Eirianwen' that our distiller Chris Marshall, takes each batch of Forager's though in a painstakingly slow distillation to capture the bright, delicate flavours of the carefully chosen botanicals.
We’ve always talked about the pure Welsh spring water, filtered through our precious Welsh gold, being the perfect canvas for a luxury spirit. Hydrology plays such an important role in the crafting of a premium gin. I have a penchant for gin and I love the ethos at Forager, their brand vision and goals being so closely aligned to my own. We’ve created an exceptional and exquisite gin that will delight aficionados. I’m delighted with our first venture into the world of high end alcoholic beverages.
Located in North Spain, Rioja region, you will find one of the world's finest wineries: Manzanos wines, owned and run by the Manzanos family.
Their range of award-winning wines is the result of five generations of work, seeing time-tested traditional methods blended seamlessly with cherry-picked modern technology.
Amongst their range is the superb barrel fermented white; Vochce Blanco. Using a masterful blend of viura and chardonnay grapes, including grapes Rioja regions oldest Chardonnay vines, Voche Blanco is a sublime white, with bags of citrus on the nose, and well balance taste stemming from it's six months in oak.
We wanted to create one of the finest gin ranges in the world.
