Maidstone Distillery embark on a bold new venture with Wildshark Gin

OUR LATEST COLLABORATION SHOWCASING WILDSHARK VINEYARD

We are incredibly proud to officially announce the launch of our newest bespoke gin, Wildshark Artisan Gin. We created this spirit for Wildshark Vineyard, located on the North Downs in the heart of Kent, and opening this weekend! The eco-friendly, sustainable vineyard shares in our passion for the environment and in creating drinks of exceptional character.

We were thrilled to be approached by Wildshark Vineyard to work together to develop our most adventurous spirit yet; a gin expression of the perfect wine growing environment. It has taken over one hundred million years before Wildshark Vineyard could plant the first vines, as the climate and soil along the North Downs developed the perfect conditions for the spectacular grapes grown at Wildshark Vineyard.

We relished the challenge of translating these gorgeous grapes into a gin. The label, designed by their expert team, features the pinot gris grapes, honey and wildflowers distilled in this wonderfully unique gin. We are thrilled to know that, from this weekend, every guest at Wildshark Vineyard can enjoy this exceptionally distinct and delicious gin.

“Soft and floral with notes of elderflower and fresh cut flowers. The mellow sweetness of honey paired with Mediterranean orange gives way to a rounded depth of juniper and delicate fruits, all this complimented by dry juicy grape and a fruity moreish finish.”
Darren Graves, Head Distiller
