Bond Street Gin is a brand that, at first glance, might evoke images of London's iconic shopping district. However, this gin has its roots firmly planted in Hinckley, taking its name from Bond Street in this Leicestershire town. Founded in 2018 by Sally Faulkner, the distillery has rapidly made a name for itself with its blend of traditional and innovative botanicals.
The locale might be different, but the dedication to craft and quality remains undeniably top-notch. Sally and her team meticulously select the botanicals that make up the Bond Street Gin range. While juniper, the backbone of any gin, is prominently featured, the artistry lies in the harmony achieved between this and the other botanicals.
Despite its relatively recent entrance into the spirits world, Bond Street Gin showcases a blend of the familiar with the unexpected. The classics are catered for, but so too are those seeking more contemporary takes on gin. Each offering within their lineup tells a distinct story, crafted under the watchful eye of Faulkner.
Beyond the gin itself, the brand's presentation is also noteworthy. Packaging blends both the classic and the contemporary, reflecting the essence of the gin within. The design is a tribute to the sophistication one might associate with London's Bond Street, but with a touch of Hinckley charm.
In just a few short years, Bond Street Gin has carved out a niche for itself. This is thanks in no small part to Sally Faulkner's vision and passion. While its name might echo London grandeur, its heart and spirit are all about celebrating the best of Hinckley's Bond Street.
