This one’s for Tom’s mum, Adele.
She might have headed off to the big gin farm in the sky, but her influence is everywhere.
‘Cause it was Adele who first popped some elderflower petals into a glass of an early Warner’s batch.
It was Adele’s nifty cooking that gave Tom the chutzpah to start mucking around with flavours.
And it was Adele’s own garden that gave inspiration – not to mention ingredients – along the way.
Cheers, Adele.

Real Tastes Better
Warner’s Distillery is the world’s leading premium farm-born gin producer. Its spirits are lovingly crafted with nature using ingredients directly from the botanical gardens, hedgerows, and natural springs of its farm estate.
Created and run by Tom & Tina Warner, Warner’s Distillery sits in the rolling hills of Northamptonshire. Steeped in ancient farming history, the estate dates back to the 13th century Knights Hospitaller whose hand-built fish ponds were fed by the farm’s spring water.
Since launching in 2012, Tom & Tina have built an expert team, producing unique spirits, elegantly crafted from ingredients grown on the farm such as elderflower, angelica, verbena and lavender.
Avoiding its competitors industrial approach, the Warner’s process is painstakingly focused on creating the best-tasting liquid, combining traditional gin production and the best farm-grown ingredients for a contemporary twist on flavor.
As the Warner’s state, “the path less travelled is often hardest but offers the richest rewards - working with real fruit and botanicals is far more complex than using factory created flavourings, but it creates the best tasting spirit, and that’s why we believe ‘Real Taste Better’ ”
It is this passion for “Doing the Right Thing” - focusing on quality and working with nature and natural ingredients that makes it distinctly Warner’s and has enabled the development of a multi-award-winning spirits portfolio and a conveyor belt of exciting and market leading spirits innovation.
Nose
Lovely soft floral elderflower with hints of lychees and some more subtle Juniper.
Palate
A lemony zing mixes wonderfully with the elderflower giving a beautiful smooth mouthfeel like icing sugar with delicate spice and a little vanilla.
Finish
The juniper fades out leaving cardamom and cinnamon with elderflower to give a long finish with a bouquet of floral and spicy flavours lingering softly.
