Detailed Description
The new bottling marks the first year Sipsmith has served as the official gin partner of The Championships, Wimbledon. The expression is made by blending English mint with ripe strawberries from Hugh Lowe Farms in Kent, the exclusive grower of strawberries for Wimbledon. The strawberries, from the 2020 harvest, and mint are combined with the brand’s London Dry Gin. Sipsmith master distiller, Jared Brown, said: “This year with Sipsmith becoming the official gin partner of Wimbledon we felt it was quite right to harness the taste of British summertime and use last year’s Championships strawberries to make this year’s champion gin.

Distillery Information
It all began in 2009, in a tiny workshop in Hammersmith, London. Three great friends – Sam, Fairfax, and Jared – set up London’s first traditional copper pot distillery in nearly 200 years. Their mission was simple: to bring London Dry Gin of truly uncompromising quality and character, back to the city where it first earned its name.
Every bottle of Sipsmith is hand crafted in genuinely small batches. Every drop of every batch is lovingly labored over by hand, by our dedicated Distillers. No regimented timings, no automatic cuts, just a craftsman’s flair and a passion for gin well made. We believe this is the only way to craft spirits of this quality.
