SUSTAINABILITY
We’re driven to produce a gin of an exceptional and inspirational nature, created with a mindfulness of community and environment, with an aspiration to invigorate your senses, lead you on adventures near and far, discover simple pleasures and connect with kindred spirits.
Green credentials
Our ethos statement above is something we strive towards every day. When developing a new gin, product or piece of packaging we ensure it meets as many of these criteria as possible.
Our bottles
Our Campfire Gin range is available in 70cl and 10cl bottle volumes. We've chosen a bottle that is made from 40% recycled glass. We also use these bottles for our for limited edition gins and PUD PUD Christmas Gin. Many bottles will have a large plug of glass in the bottom. Our's doesn't. Less glass equates to a reduced carbon footprint during production, transit and recycling.
Our Campfire Gin bottle labels are printed just eight miles from the distillery – again reducing transportation. The paper material is 30% recycled fibre and is from a FSC certified supplier. This includes the neck watch strap anti-tamper labels too. Occasionally you might see what looks like a plastic anti-tamper seal on our limited edition bottles. These are made from compostable plastic.
Cork is the bark material of the Quercus suber tree (cork oak). Whilst it is seen as a sustainable product and one of the best materials for bottle closures it does take around approx 10 years for the bark to grow thick enough for harvesting. Our stopper is made from recycled cork with a wood top made from FSC certified wood.
Packaging
If you order gin online from us all our bottles and gift sets are shipped in plastic free packaging.
All trade orders are shipped in plastic free packaging too.
Gin production
Our gins are made using the multi-shot method rather than single-shot method. This significantly reduces our energy and water usage.
Gin refills
Enjoyed a bottle of Campfire Gin and want another? Well, if you live locally to our Tring distillery you can bring your 70cl bottle into the distillery and we will refill it for you. What's even better is that you'll make a saving on the bottle price.
For our trade customers we operate a pouch scheme which reduces the amount of bottles, packaging, fuel and energy used.
Whilst our bottle is made from 40% recycled glass the more we can re-use the bottles the better. It takes time, uses transportation fuel and manufacturing energy to re-introduce recycled glass back into the system and with less virgin material available the quickest route to recycling our bottles is to bring them back to the distillery for a refill.
