How forest-inspired Goosnargh Gin has grown sales while giving back to nature
19 July 2022
Goosnargh Gin is a business driven to a large degree by a love for the Forest of Bowland.
The distillery’s small-batch gins draw inspiration from the area also known as Bowland Fells, whose gritstone fells, deep valleys and peat moorland span Lancashire and North Yorkshire. It’s reflected in the brand’s use of botanicals, including spruce tips, sorrel, gorse flower and heather – some of which are foraged from the forest.
“All our gins are designed to celebrate, to promote, or to give back to the Forest of Bowland,” explains Richard Trenchard, who co-founded the business with his wife, Rachel.
