The Gower Gin Company
The Gower Gin Company ('Gwyr' in Welsh) was launched in 2017 by Siân and Andrew Brooks in Port Eynon on Wales' Gower peninsula. After launching their flagship London Dry Gin, Siân and Andrew have gone on to launch Pinwydd Gin, Rhosili Gin in collaboration with the Dylan Thomas estate, the 60% ABV Rhosili Dragon Strength Gin, Bara Brith Gin based on a recipe for the traditional Welsh fruit loaf, and the fruity and floral Rhamanta Gin.

The Gin Guide Review: Gower Gin is a bold and flavoursome gin with prominent aromatic fennel that brings green, herbaceous and anise-like character in great depth. Earthy spice and pepper notes from the juniper and traditional gin botanicals provide balance and the backbone for the fennel, whilst lemon zest and pink grapefruit zest add contrast and lift the gin with bright citrus notes. It's a charming and characterful gin that achieves the increasingly difficult goal of being distinctive and individual. Fans of fennel and anise can certainly expect to enjoy it. - Paul Jackson, 2019
