September’s gin was from West Yorkshire, and a new entry to the gin category.
.
Founded by Tom Clark in 2020, Castle Hill are a small producer based in Huddersfield and named after an ancient raised area of land just south of Huddersfield near Almondsbury, where the Victoria Tower depicted on the bottle label stands tall.
The distillery was started in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, allowing Tom to realise a lifelong dream.
The gin is made using seven botanicals, which crucially includes rosemary and thyme, giving this gin a notable herbal character paired with spice from cinnamon. The distillery also produces a Lady Grey gin made using bergamot oranges (like the tea).
