Product Information

We are leading the way into the roaring twenties with a luxury spirit brand steeped in history, prestige, heritage and pedigree. We are excited to invite our friends and fans from around the world to play a part in Highclere's legacy and future," said company CEO, Adam von Gootkin. Through the centuries, Highclere Castle has hosted royalty, celebrities, statesmen and prominent artists, and Lord and Lady Carnarvon continue this tradition today. Having served gin at the castle to welcome guests for over 100 years, Highclere Castle Gin was created using botanicals from the Victorian gardens to liquify the "true spirit" of Highclere Castle and share it with the world. Second is the lime flower. Citrus fruits don’t grow wild in the UK. These are the flowers of a genus of trees best known as Linden. Widely grown across much of Europe, these trees were an important part of indigenous medicine and modern perfume craft. Some love the smell, while to others they are an acquired taste. The flowers in this gin are sources from the Highclere Estate. Tasting Notes The Autumn Statement winners and losers: LUNCH MONEY on what you'll save on NI, NatWest shares and tax cuts we didn't get

I've put quite a lot of my savings into Highclere Castle Gin. We started it in 2019 – just before Covid, which was terrible timing. But I hope it will prove my best money decision. So far, the gin has won 100 gold and platinum awards. It took us four years to develop. It's inspired by what we grow at Highclere, the botanicals, the lemons in the greenhouses, the lavender and juniper on the hills. Highclere Castle is a 5,000-acre estate in Hampshire, England and has been the country seat of the Earls of Carnarvon since 1679. One of the world's most famous homes, it rose to international fame as the main filming location for the Emmy award-winning period drama, Downton Abbey, with the motion picture sequel scheduled to be released in May 2022.

We are bringing money in, but this is about capital, and Highclere has had a capital deficit for 100 years. I'm afraid you can't make that up straight away. Firstly, fans of Downton Abbey (like yours truly) will recognize the name. Yup, Highclere Castle Gin is named for that Highclere Castle— the one you can visit and see the rooms from the show. But I digress, let’s talk about the gin. Highclere Castle Gin is one of the best classic gin releases of the last few years. It uses an eclectic set of botanicals with a good story— all the while creating a delectable juniper-forward product that mixes well and can be sipped on its own.
