About us
SKY WAVE, The Gin Guide Distillery of the Year 2024, and home of The World’s Best Contemporary Gin - World Gin Awards Sky Wave Gin, distilled at our distillery at Bicester Heritage in Oxfordshire, is an ultra-premium gin made entirely by hand, in very small batches from the finest ingredients, by real people. It is the pinnacle of craft distilling. It’s easy to see why our London Dry edition has been crowned The World’s Best Contemporary London Dry Gin. We lovingly combine 13 different botanicals from juniper and orris root, through grapefruit and orange, to cardamom and coriander to create this highly individual gin.

Did you know that when our Master Distiller is not crafting exceptional spirits for you, he is involved in lots of other creative pursuits? He is an actor and stage manager with a theatre group, Banbury Cross Players, and a drummer in not one but two rock bands. He has also been asked recently to play percussion in Beethoven’s 9th for the incredible Trinity Camerata, an Oxfordshire-based orchestra (they were short!) The picture is his view from the percussion section today. He says he’ll rest when he’s dead!

SKY WAVE TRIPLE DISTILLED VODKA ALREADY RECEIVING HIGH PRAISE Sky Wave Triple Distilled Vodka (40% ABV) has been described as “a fine sipping vodka” by drinks industry experts, International Drinks Specialists. It was awarded the incredibly high rating of 94 out of 100, securing its place as a premium vodka. It has also been described as a ‘game-changer’ by the renowned spirits judge and expert, David T Smith. The full reviews are below: “Clean, fresh and inviting on the nose with a lovely and gentle but elegant vanilla, fine grain aromas and some white almond backed by soft fruity notes. Soft and mellow on the palate, medium bodied, fresh and clean in the delivery. The alcohol is nicely integrated making this a potential candidate for a fine sipping vodka or a great base for dry vodka martinis and many other drinks.” International Drinks Specialists "I’ve got to say I think this vodka is a bit of a game-changer. Beautiful, rich and full-bodied with a touch of creaminess." David T. Smith Sky Wave Triple Distilled Vodka is available through all Sky Wave's stockists across the UK, and direct from the distillery shop or via https://skywavegin.com #worldsbest #vodka #thespiritofoxfordshire #skywavegin #craftdistilling #oxfordshire #bicester #craft #artisan

Today, Armed Forces Day, Sky Wave would like to wish all members of His Majesty’s Armed Forces, serving and retired, a great day of celebration. Thank you for your service. To those who have not served: please respect and honour them, not just today but every day. Many have paid a high price for their service, and too many are still paying. Not all injuries are visible. Here are a few pics of our co-founder and Master Distiller looking very much younger, from Afghanistan to commanding the Changing of the Guard at Buckingham Palace. #ArmedForcesDay2024
