In this podcast we chat with Sebastian Heeley, co-founder of the Manchester Gin Company who along with his now partner Jen Wiggins, set up Manchester Gin in May 2016.
Sebastian tells of the love story behind the formation, growth and development of Manchester Gin, shares a few distilling secrets and expresses his delight at such a young company already recieving an array of plaudits, recognitions and awards at international industry competitions.
Manchester Gin was born in the dining room of a house that Jen and Seb had just bought. Now, the Spirit of Manchester Distillery occupies a space in the centre of the city where every bottle is hand-crafted and distilled in small batches courtesy of three copper 'ladies', Wendy after Jen’s beloved late mother, Victoria after the fabulous Victoria Wood and Emmeline after the iconic suffragette Emmeline Pankhurst in tribute to some of Manchester’s most inspirational women.
