This family run distillery began their journey as fruit farmers who then went on to produce fruit liqueurs, now passed on to the second generation the sibling team Michael and Felicity have made their mark developing the elegant 6'oclock range.
6 O’clock Gin is a range of strikingly smooth artisan gins, handcrafted in small batches, using traditional skills and only the best natural ingredients.
The name was inspired by our long-held family tradition of indulging in a G&T at 6 o’clock; a custom still enjoyed at the distillery and shared by gin-lovers all over the world.
