Vicars Gin was launched in 2019 by Naomi Joy and is currently distilled by Union Distillers in Market Harborough, with ambitions to bring distillation to her family's home at Oakhampton Estate. The 2,000+ acre estate was established by the Crane family in 1827 when Henry Crane chose the fertile land in Dunley to settle on & farm. The family, now seven generations on, continues to own the estate and has set aside a small proportion of the land to grow botanicals including coriander seeds and orris root. Plans are also in place to grow juniper in years to come. The Vicars Gin name is is honour of Naomi's father who has been a vicar for over 50 years.
