Brighton Distillery

Brighton Gin

Small batch, super-premium, award-winning Brighton Gin – distilled beside the seaside –is genuinely hand made from the purest grain spirit, juniper, fresh orange and lime peel, locally-grown coriander seed and milk thistle, which is indigenous to the South Downs and renowned for its kindness to the liver function. Each bottle is filled, labelled and wax sealed by hand, the distinctive blue/green colour being that of Brighton’s famous seafront railings. Versatile and adaptable, Brighton Gin also works brilliantly as a Martini and is exceptional as part of a Negroni. This is a subtle, ruminative gin and, thanks to its softness, Brighton Gin is also delicious sipped neat, over ice with a slice of orange.
