Launched in 2020 by Paul, Deb and Holly Challinor, Cheshire Botanicals is a family-run spirits business, created to honour the town of Nantwich and its history. The original recipe was developed in Cheshire Botanicals' small onsite distillery and larger batches are produced by a local partner distillery. The choice of botanicals for Nantwich Gin was inspired by the works of John Gerard, the Nantwich-born botanist who served as Royal Herbalist to King James I of England in the early 1600s, and the bottle label was designed by local artist Jiri Borsky and reflects the Tudor architecture found through the town.

Meet the Makers

"Creating a local gin had always been a bit of a dream for us as a family, but commitments delayed the start-up until 2020. We believed that Nantwich deserved a premium gin product of its own to celebrate the town’s history, culture, personalities and stories from the past." - Director, Holly Challinor
