Shed 1 Gin Fancy Frolic.

 

Whilst watching their Border Terrier frolicking on a wintry beach their thoughts turner to hazy, sunny days. Those thoughts led to Shed 1 Gin Fancy Frolic with a lovely sunny aspect whose mix of three types of lime (petals, leaf and fresh zest), ginger, strawberries can be enjoyed all year round! Who can resist a frolic? Great Taste Award Judges commented: A really pronounced aroma of fresh lime, punctuated by come spices to give it appeal. The flavour is really well-balanced, with lots of fresh lime character and a good level of sweetness, with a good intensity from the alcohol to give it some punch; quite a vibrant tasting gin, 43% ABV. Bronze Award Winner at 2022 World Gin Awards: Signature Gin.

 

They started in their Garden Shed and moved to The Old Calf Shed in 2019. Here, they opened a Visitor Attraction, which was shortlisted in The World Gin Awards, Best Gin Visitor Attraction, 2021. They offer Cumbria’s only Make Your Own Gin Experiences, as well as Distillery Tours & Tastings and a botanical-inspired Afternoon G&Tea.

Cuckold’s Revenge, the very first Gin they created, is featured in “101 Gins To Try Before You Die”!

 

Andy has been a professional actor for over 20 years. Over that time, he’s tread the boards from Land’s End to John O’Groats and from Asia to America.  Zoe started her work life as a special paint finisher, then got the opportunity to teach in Japan for a year. This turned into a 7-year stint in Asia. They bumped into each other in South Korea and Zoe returned back to the UK the following year. Andy’s home was already in Cumbria and when they moved to Ulverston they realised they’d found somewhere very special.  

 

Zoe had been making compound gin elixirs for a while and Andy started getting more interested in the process. After playing with botanicals for a while they decided it was time to take it up a notch and produce their own gin. They were looking for bigger, bolder flavours than they found in a lot of the gins they sampled. So, the next question was where. Somewhere big enough for a small still, close to home would be good, rent-free even better.

 

“How about the shed?”

“Which one?”

“Shed 1, closest to the house.”

And so, Shed 1 Distillery was born.
