England’s First Carbon-Negative Gin
We’re taking the lead to fight climate change. That’s why every 700ml bottle of Herb or Dry Gin removes 1kg of CO₂e from the atmosphere and plants 1 square metre of native UK woodland. Click below to view our latest Carbon Report and find out more.
SUSTAINABLE GIN
As a sustainable distillery we work closely with farmers, suppliers and customers, to ensure we minimise any negative impact arising from our operations. From day one we have actively reduced the carbon emissions associated with our gin, for example opting for lightweight, recycled glass bottles, using only 100% renewable energy and planting UK woodland. Find out more about our sustainable actions here.
To reduce our impact even further, we worked with an experienced independent consultant to calculate the footprint of our two best-selling products, the Herb Gin and Dry Gin.
CARBON REMOVAL
We chose to offset the footprint 1kg beyond neutral with high-impact credits from Verra’s Verified Carbon Standard program, the world's leading carbon verification scheme. This means investing money into certified projects that ensure the removal of 1kg more CO₂e from the atmosphere than the gin emits, helping to reduce the adverse effects of climate change.
By working with a verified offsetting scheme, we can be certain that every credit represents a permanent, unclaimed and accurate tonne of CO₂e removed and that the scheme does not harm people or planet. Understand more about carbon credits here.
A CO₂ equivalent (CO₂e) is a unit of measurement that is used to standardise the climate effects of various greenhouse gases.
TREE PLANTING
In addition to carbon offsetting, each bottle of gin plants one square metre of native broadleaf UK woodland thanks to our charity partnership with the Yorkshire Dales Millennium Trust. Woodland creation promotes biodiversity, reduces flooding, sequesters carbon and creates beautiful outdoor spaces for communities to enjoy. Learn about tree planting here.
It is our way of investing in the future and doubling-down on our commitment to the planet. Each square metre of woodland could lock away an extra 16.6kg of carbon over the next 50 years.
