- Welsh brand Eccentric Spirits awarded one Master Medal and two Gold Medals at the Global Gin Masters 2022.
- Young Tom Gin awarded Master Medal in the Old Tom Gin Category, and Dewi Sant Gin and Cardiff Dry Gin both awarded Gold Medals in the Contemporary Gin Category.
Adding to their growing portfolio of awards, Eccentric Spirits, distilled at award-winning Welsh distillery In The Welsh Wind, is delighted to have experienced success at the prestigious Global Gin Masters 2022, with their Young Tom Gin awarded a Master Medal in the Old Tom Gin Category, and their Dewi Sant Gin and Cardiff Dry Gin both awarded Gold Medals in the Contemporary Gin Category.
Ellen Wakelam, co-founder and director of In The Welsh Wind Distillery expressed:
“We take pride in the spirits that we distil here at In The Welsh Wind Distillery, and we are thrilled that our Eccentric Spirits range is being recognised on an international stage”.
She said:
“Since Eccentric Spirits has been with us at In The Welsh Wind, we have ensured that the botanical profile of each spirit celebrates the inspiration behind its creation – our Gold Medal winning Dewi Sant Gin is inspired by sea spray, and we use a coastal infusion of aromatic herbs to portray this on the palate. Cardiff Dry Gin, also a Gold Medal winner, is inspired by our capital city’s quirks, and our Master Medal winning Young Tom Gin uses distilled IPA to introduce malty sweetness”.
Chaired by spirits specialists and The Spirits Business, the Global Gin Masters 2022 medals are awarded in each category based on the results of a blind tasting, with the aim of discovering the world’s finest gins.
