Anno Gin is produced in small batches in a copper pot still named Patience in the Garden of England in Kent using some of the finest botanicals from the local area. I visited the distillery with my fiance and my brother, who got us their rum tour and cocktail masterclass, as a gift for Christmas. Edward Kain, the dapper gentleman seafarer and great grandfather of the Head Distiller, enjoyed his gin and tonic at 6 O’clock; a tradition still shared by British gin-lovers all over the world today. Using their superb multi-award winning Anno Kent Dry Gin as a starting point, Anno Distillers add fresh cranberries to create a wonderful concoction which is then further infused with a selection of Christmas spices sure to delight your senses.

Ian and Fiona were excellent, attentive hosts who explained the gin making and blending process before giving us free rein to blend our own bottle of gin to take home. With one eye on the science behind making quality spirits and another on proudly displaying all that their home county of Kent has to offer, they duly created Anno Distillers and began the journey of a lifetime.

The fresh and fruity flavours of summertime in the Kent countryside come together to create this delicious subtly sweet pink gin.
