WALKING OUR OWN PATH

“At Goosnargh Gin we believe in walking our own path, telling our story Chapter by Chapter and championing independence.”

Ethos-led gins, produced with integrity.

Multi-award winning Goosnargh Gin is lovingly crafted by us, Richard and Rachel Trenchard, at our working distillery based at the foot of Beacon Fell. Being situated on the edge of the Forest of Bowland Natural Landscape (Formerly AONBs) in the parish of Goosnargh, Lancashire, we are immersed in the inspiration for our products.

TELLING OUR STORY CHAPTER BY CHAPTER

After varied careers in journalism and education respectively for more than 20 years, we founded Goosnargh Gin in January 2018. Building on a long held passion for true small batch production and quality ingredients. This allowed us to take more than a decade of amassed knowledge in the field, to forge our own path as producers and tell our story. We are surrounded by the inspiration for our range of gins, from the diverse botanicals, to the spectacular geography and rich heritage of the area.

We were delighted to achieve our first award, a Gold for our Chapter One Signature Gin, in the prestigious International Wine and Spirit Competition in 2019. We have since gone on to be awarded further local, national and International accolades, which we are equally proud of and are not only testament to the consistent high quality of our products, but also the immersive experiences we offer. We are also proud holders of a Green Tourism Gold accreditation which we have held since 2021

CHAMPIONING & CELEBRATING INDEPENDENCE

At Goosnargh Gin we are fiercely independent. This means you will never see our products being sold through mass-market routes either in-store or online, or being served through national chains. All our retailer stockists are independent businesses who share our passion for quality and embrace our strong ethos and values. This decision is at the core of what we do and ensures we are offering a real point of difference to our customers, retailer stockists, and on-trade establishments.

THE STORY CONTINUES…

In May 2024 Goosnargh Gin’s little sister ‘Trough’ launched at Chew’s Yard in Preston. An exciting, unique food and drink venue and event space, incorporating a walled courtyard garden right in the city. As well as serving our gins, spritzes and cocktails, we also have a food menu which champions local and independent producers and suppliers.

Thank you for joining our story.

Best wishes,

Richard and Rachel
