The Gower Gin Company

Coastal Welsh craft distilling

The Gower Gin Company was founded by Andrew and Sian Brooks with a clear aim to create spirits that reflect their surroundings. Based in Port Eynon, right on the Gower coast, the distillery draws inspiration from sea air, sand dunes, hedgerows and coastal plants. Every bottle is designed to feel rooted in place, offering a genuine sense of Welsh provenance.

Botanicals inspired by the Gower

A defining feature of The Gower Gin Company is its use of locally foraged and regionally inspired botanicals. Ingredients such as gorse flower, sea buckthorn, samphire, pine and coastal herbs feature across the range. These botanicals help create spirits that are fresh, aromatic and unmistakably coastal in character, setting them apart from more traditional gin styles.

Small batch philosophy

Production is deliberately kept small to allow full control over flavour and quality. Recipes are developed, tested and refined in house, with a strong focus on balance rather than overpowering intensity. This approach results in spirits that are expressive yet drinkable, whether enjoyed neat, with tonic or as part of a simple cocktail.

More than just gin

While gin sits at the heart of the range, The Gower Gin Company has expanded into other spirits that follow the same coastal inspired ethos. Spiced rums, flavoured rums, vodka, vermouth and liqueurs all form part of the collection. Many releases are limited or seasonal, reflecting both experimentation and the availability of local ingredients.

Collaborations and local identity

Collaboration is an important part of the brand’s identity. Working with local producers, artists and businesses allows the distillery to explore new ideas while staying connected to the wider Gower community. These collaborations often result in distinctive bottlings that celebrate Welsh culture, landscape and creativity.
