Launched in 2020, Burrell's Gin is distilled by Tristan Jorgensen at Massingberd-Mundy Distillery in Lincolnshire. The distillery is part of the historic South Ormsby Estate, occupying 3,000 acres of the Lincolnshire Wolds and once a thriving community. Under new ownership the estate is being lovingly revived and Burrell's Gin is inspired by former owner Charles Burrell-Massingberd who was born in 1749 and became the owner of the estate in 1802. The gin features a number of botanicals from the South Ormsby Estate, including elderflower and apples from the distillery garden.
The Gin Guide Review
Burrell's Gin is smooth, crisp and light, bringing together a classic core with contemporary rural botanicals. It is fragrant and enticing on the nose with juniper, citrus peels, floral elderflower and underlying earthiness and peppery notes. On the palate, fruity apple and elderflower are well paired and the finish sees peppery notes, cassia, citrus fruits and coriander seeds emerge further, as well as a lingering herbaceous note of bay. With the addition of tonic it is light, fruity and floral, with gentle citrus, earthy soft spice and juniper. It makes for a fresh, fragrant and summery G&T that pleasingly delivers the character of the Lincolnshire Wolds. Citrus fruits and peels make for ideal garnish starting points. ​- Paul Jackson, 2020

Distiller, Tristan Jorgensen
"This was the opportunity of a lifetime, an opportunity to create my very own distillery, my own range of gins and a brand that fitted within the South Ormsby model. It also meant that we as a family could come together and restart our life in rural Lincolnshire."
