William Grant & Sons

William Grant & Sons, arguably best known for its iconic whiskies, is an independent, family-owned Scottish company which has built a notable presence in the gin category through both innovation and heritage.

The company, established in 1887, approaches gin with the same dedication to quality and craftsmanship that has underpinned its family-owned business for generations.

Leveraging its deep understanding of botanicals, distillation, and flavour profiling, William Grant & Sons has developed gins that balance traditional craftsmanship with contemporary tastes.

Its portfolio includes brands such as Hendrick’s, renowned for its infusion of cucumber and rose petals, which has become a global benchmark for premium, craft-style gin.

The company continues to experiment with unique botanical combinations and limited-edition expressions, reflecting a willingness to push the boundaries of gin production.

Production takes place in specialist copper carterhead stills, allowing precise control over distillation and ensuring consistency and quality across batches.

Beyond production, William Grant & Sons actively promotes gin culture and education, supporting bartenders, mixologists, and consumers in exploring the versatility of gin.

Through a combination of technical expertise, creativity, and strong branding, the company has firmly established itself as a leading figure in the international gin market.
