Have you ever wondered why at Salcombe Gin we work with the Marine Conservation Society to protect, conserve, and restore seagrass? The UK has lost 92% of its seagrass meadows. It is a vital part of our ecosystem as it not only home to many marine species, but it sequesters huge amounts of carbon which is vital in the fight against climate change. We wanted to take this opportunity to help raise awareness about these precious marine meadows. Did you know that: ✔ Despite covering only a small percentage of our seas, seagrass sequesters roughly 10% of carbon that is buried in ocean sediment each year ✔ Seagrass captures and stores carbon 35 times faster than tropical rainforests ✔ Seagrass produces oxygen for us to breathe ✔ Seagrass meadows act as a nursery and breeding ground to a wide variety of marine life including cuttlefish, sharks, and the UK’s two native species of seahorse ✔ By taking the energy out of waves headed for the shore, seagrass is able to act as a natural defence against erosion . #SalcombeGin #Salcombe #Gin #BritishGin #StartPoint #GinAndTonic #GAndT #Conservation #OceanProtection #SaveOurOceans #Seagrass #MarineConservationSociety

Our Business Development Manager met up with Christopher Biggins who happens to be quite the gin-enthusiast 🍸 . #CelebritySpotting #Cornwall #SalcombeGin
What a small world! Yesterday on my Eastern Airways (UK) Ltd flight home from London Gatwick, I had the unexpected pleasure of meeting the one and only Christopher Biggins! 🎭 To my surprise, he was on his way to Cornwall to meet our very own Cornwall Ambassador Shane Solomon. As we chatted, I discovered that Christopher is quite the gin enthusiast. 🍸 Naturally, I couldn’t let him leave Cornwall without a bottle of Salcombe Gin, so this morning I made a quick visit to The Headland Cornwall to personally deliver it 🌟 Salcombe Distilling Company #smallworld #Cornwallconnections #SalcombeGin #Cornwallambassador #london #ITV #ChristopherBiggins #britsihactor #london #westend

Great photos from our Business Development Manager Jake Conway who completed a Salcombe Gin training session with the team at P&O Cruises onboard the Azura while docked in Civitavecchia, Italy! 🇮🇹 . #ItalianAdventure #GinMasterclass #GinTraining #Azura #PandOCruises #SalcombeGin
Had the incredible opportunity to lead a gin training session today on board P&O Cruises beautiful cruise ship, Azura, while docked in Civitavecchia, Italy! 🇮🇹 It’s always a pleasure to showcase the exceptional range from Salcombe Gin to such an enthusiastic group. Today, we delved into the craftsmanship behind: 🍊 Salcombe Gin ‘Start Point’ – Our classic London Dry with notes of red grapefruit, pine with a smooth, refreshing finish. 🍓🍋 Salcombe Gin ‘Rosé Sainte Marie’ – A delicate rosé gin inspired by the Mediterranean, bursting with strawberries, lemon, and a hint of peppery spice. 🍏🍃 ‘Marabelle’ by Salcombe Gin – A gin made in partnership with P&O Cruises. A unique blend that captures the essence of Cypress, fresh green apple, heather oak and blackberries. 🍎 Salcombe Gin Voyager Series ‘Daring’ – In collaboration with Paul Ainsworth at Number 6. A bold expression with rich, deep flavors perfect for those seeking adventure in their glass. #GinMasterclass #SalcombeGin #CruiseLife #Civitavecchia #Azura #GinLovers Salcombe Distilling Company

Last week, I had the absolute pleasure of doing a live distillation at ELLIS WHARTON WINES LTD. A huge thank you to Charles Wharton, Victoria Wharton and Jim Bass for having me along for the evening. We did something a little different this time— we distilled a red wine from the South of France and turned it into gin. If you haven’t visited yet, EW Wines is based on the Indian Queens Industrial Estate, just off the A30. Their selection of wines and spirits are truly exceptional.

Let's raise a glass to the RNLI this World Drowning Prevention Day and the vital work they do saving lives at sea 🌊 What better time to share some images from a recent event, hosted by our incredible partners over at Life's Kitchen, which we attended with 'Four Seas' by Salcombe Gin as the official gin partner. The event raised £1,000 for Tower RNLI. Huge thanks to Carl Plinston and his team for their cocktail-making skills and Zach Levens at ZRJPhotography for capturing the night perfectly! It was a fantastic evening and a pleasure to be able to contribute to such an amazing cause. Every bottle of 'Four Seas' by Salcombe Gin and Salcombe Rum 'Island Street' sold, helps save lives at sea. We donate 10% of the net price for every bottle sold, to the RNLI to support the courageous work they do saving lives at sea. . #RNLI #WorldDrowningPreventionDay #Partnership #Gin #Cocktails #CharityFundraiser #TowerRNLI #RNLI #SalcombeGin #LifesKitchen #ZRJPhotography #Community

What an incredible and busy week it’s been out and about for Salcombe Gin! 🍸 Started the week in London, visiting some of our fantastic accounts. On Wednesday I had a blast at the Cornwall Chamber of Commerce Business Fair at Truro School connecting with some amazing local businesses. Yesterday, it was all about Devon, where I had the pleasure of showcasing our gin cart and serving Salcombe Gin and tonics for our friends at Rockbox – truly a “gin-uinely” delightful experience! Today, I’m wrapping up the week in beautiful Bath, training the staff of the new Mexican fusion restaurant, Bardacious, where Salcombe Gin is the house pour gin. Excited for their soft opening this weekend! Cheers to a week full of gin-spiration and looking forward to more adventures ahead! 🥂 #SalcombeGin #Ginspiration #OnTheMove #BusinessFair #Cornwall #London #Devon #Bath #MexicanFusion #Bardacious #Rockbox #GinCart #GinLife #Cheers Salcombe Distilling Company Adam Leon Fiona G.

Our co-founder Angus Lugsdin will be there later this month to host a 'Live Distillation & Sampling' event for trade and consumers, bringing the South Devon coast to the city. . #SalcombeGin #AmathusDrinks #SouthKensington #EscapeToTheCoast

Great shot of our co-founder Angus Lugsdin sampling with customers at Bristol Airport at the World Duty Free - WDF store 📸 . #WorldDutyFree #BristolAirport #SalcombeGin #EscapeToTheCoastWhereverYouAre
Co-Founder & Director of Salcombe Distilling Company | Story teller, Part time distiller, spirits judge and lover of epic liquids
Great to be back at Bristol Airport 🛫 at the World Duty Free - WDF store with Hilary Hooper and her team for a little consumer research and two days of sampling on back-to-back shifts. Fantastic to introduce new customers to the Salcombe Distilling Company brands. Sales of Salcombe Gin ‘Rose Sainte Marie’ were just ahead of Salcombe Gin ‘Start Point’ today, so it will be interesting to see if it is the same at 5am tomorrow morning. I love customers reactions when they taste our gins and then put the bottle of another brand they had in their hand back on the shelf or decide to splash out and pick up a bottle of Salcombe Gin as well. Tasting is believing. #travelretail #dutyfree #Salcombe #Mediterranean #LondonDry
