Lea Valley Gin Distillery

Lea Valley Gin Distillery was founded in 2020 by Bernie Molokwu after moving to the lower Lea Valley area in 2019. During the Covid-19 lockdowns, Bernie discovered the history and plethora of leisure activities within the valley, as well learning the different skills required to create his gin recipe and brand. After 9 months of development, the first bottles of Lea Valley Gin were launched in 2020. The distillery is located in a workshop in Harringay and Berne has since launched a Navy Strength edition and Lemongrass & Lavender Gin.

Meet the Maker

"Having never distilled anything before, the pandemic provided an opportunity to fill copious amounts of spare time by learning the different skills required to create a quality gin. But, what was lacking in experience was made up for with passion and dedication. The vision was to create a sensational gin to rival other small-batch distilleries while celebrating the Lea Valley." - Founder, Bernie Molokwu
