Dinnewell's Gin

During the 2020/21 lockdowns, Chris and Sarah Dinnewell used their hospitality experience to create a unique gin. Chris has a background in music and brewing. Sarah is an abstract artist. Together, they made an innovative and refined gin range.

Family is central to Dinnewell’s Gin. Chris and Sarah focus on supporting their two children. This commitment shows in their work. They handpick white roses for their Yorkshire Rosé and manage every part of the distillation. Their 25-litre still, 'Annie', reflects this dedication. They ensure each drop of gin is perfect.

The branding is personal. The bottle design looks like stained glass. Each part tells a story about the Dinnewells' life and gin-making. The stained glass theme is from their wedding. It shows their bond and the love they put into their gin.

A key part of the bottle is the sideways rose logo. Roses were important at their wedding. The logo also honours their youngest child, named Rose. The rose forms a 'D' for their family name and gin brand. Their older child, Jack, who is autistic, is represented by rainbows. These show the spectrum's diversity and the joy he brings.

Sustainability is important for Dinnewell’s Gin. This is shown by the leaf in their design. They use sustainable materials and processes. Their bottles are made and filled within 80 miles of West Yorkshire. They also support local producers in their seasonal gins.

The distillery is environmentally conscious. They avoid single-use plastics. Their bottle seals, made from wood pulp, degrade quickly. They minimise waste. Leftover citrus peels from distillation become garnishes.

Dinnewell’s has a bottle return scheme. This promotes reuse over recycling. They offer a discount for each returned bottle. This encourages environmental responsibility.
