Ad Gefrin

Founded in the heart of Northumberland, Ad Gefrin is a distillery and Anglo-Saxon museum inspired by the rich heritage of the ancient kingdom of Northumbria.

Situated in Wooler, close to the site of the seventh-century royal palace at Yeavering (Ad Gefrin), the company combines traditional craftsmanship with a passion for storytelling, celebrating the region’s remarkable history through its spirits and visitor experience.

Ad Gefrin was established with the ambition of creating world-class English spirits while showcasing the culture, landscape and hospitality of Northumberland.

The distillery produces a distinctive range of premium spirits, including Tácnbora Gin, which reflects the surrounding countryside through a carefully selected blend of botanicals and a commitment to quality distillation.

The distillery has quickly become one of England’s most exciting spirits destinations, welcoming visitors from across the UK and beyond to explore its interactive museum, working distillery, tasting experiences and restaurant.

Every aspect of the business celebrates provenance, craftsmanship and community, with locally sourced ingredients and strong links to the region wherever possible.

By combining innovation with a deep respect for tradition, Ad Gefrin is helping to establish Northumberland as an important destination for premium spirits while honouring the stories, people and landscapes that have shaped the county for more than a thousand years.
