Why:

Since launching our food and drink venture Trough down at Chew’s Yard in May 2024, and continuing to evolve this part of our business in 2025 with the introduction of Trough at The Distillery, Trough Gatherings and Trough Pantry & Kitchen, we are making changes to our ordering and delivery model for Goosnargh Gin.

This model has been introduced in order to dovetail and streamline our distilling and product finishing processes, alongside our popular gin school experiences and Trough.

Another why:

We are a true artisan producer who does not out-source any part of our production. Everything is done in our distillery, and those of you who have been to our gin school or foraging and distilling days will have hopefully enjoyed hearing about our processes and our passion for how and why we do things the way we do.

We are proud to be a verified ‘Actually Made In’ producer, recognised for our commitment to upholding authenticity and quality in the distilling sector - and that’s how it will always stay. That means we need one of the most important commodities of all, time.

We are humans, not robots or a big faceless behemoth company, and like you we only have 24 hours in a day.

How it works:

On the 1st of the month we’ll drop the products available for that month on the website.

Once it’s gone, it’s gone until the next drop on the 1st of the following month. If we are out of stock of a particular product, it will say ‘SOLD OUT’

This does not affect custom re-distills of gin school recipes, or gift vouchers, which will be available continuously.

Drops are being used by many artisan producers, creatives and restaurants for bookings, and we feel it’s the right model for us, due to how our business is evolving.

Thanks:

We genuinely appreciate every single one of you, whether you’ve been walking this path with us since the start in 2018 or whether you’ve joined the journey more recently, thank you. Every single order fills us with happiness and pride, and there’s nothing nicer than knowing you appreciate the time and effort we put in to producing a quality, genuinely artisan product. So, cheers and here’s to turning a page on this new chapter of Goosnargh Gin.
