While we expect the flavours to be very similar, the original in its ship bottle will surely be a great collector's item in the years to come. Get yourself a bottle here before stock runs out:

Retribution Gin

Juniper takes the helm in this gin. A ridiculous amount is used - firstly the juniper is steeped for 16 hours in high abv spirit, more juniper is added to the boiler prior to the start of the distillation run along with 9 other botanicals, and then the still’s vapour basket is packed with as much juniper as it will hol

Once it's gone, it's gone! Bottles of our original Retribution Gin are now extremely limited, and we'll be slightly tweaking the next batch for a very exciting reason: we'll be managing the entire production process from grain to glass.

Retribution Distilling - Single Malt English Whisky PR002

The second release of single malt whisky from local distillery, Retribution. We are very lucky to get a small allocation of this single cask release as many of the bottles go to the Retribution whisky club first. Cask: W004, which is an ex-Bourbon quarter cask (Buffalo Trace) giving a tremendous amount of American oak

Most notably, Retribution is known for having recently released Somerset's first and only whisky, and we hope to release the first peated whisky made with Somerset peat in the coming years.

After earning awards and completing a Brewing and Distilling course at Heriot Watt, Rich discovered that distilling was his true passion and founded the Retribution Distilling we know and love today.

Retribution Distilling @retributiondist.bsky.social · 22d

It was a hobby that transformed into a desire to brew the best beer possible, and Rich continued to work on this mission when he moved to Somerset, where he set up shop in his garden shed.

Retribution Distilling @retributiondist.bsky.social · 22d

Long before we planted our roots in Somerset and started distilling spirits, Rich started out by brewing beer in his lean-to in Plymouth.

This three-year-old whisky sits at 53% ABV and its flavour is heavily influenced by the Oloroso hogshead it matured in, bringing a nuttiness and fruitiness to our smooth and creamy new make.

Somewhere between 3-6 years of age, we'll bottle the whiskies at cask strength. We're looking forward to hearing what you think of the two distinct flavours the casks create!

Retribution Distilling @retributiondist.bsky.social · Sep 19

Both are filled with our new make spirit at 60% ABV. The new make was produced from Maris Otter distilling malt and mashed, fermented and double pot-distilled in direct-fired copper pot stills at our distillery in Somerset.

Now that our distillery has expanded to produce rum, whisky and vodka, we're not just capable of doing this but passionate about taking the leap, creating a new base gin will retain similar flavours to the original but will be shaped by the place and people that made it.

Retribution Distilling @retributiondist.bsky.social · Sep 16

Though we're very proud of the first spirit we put to market and the IWSC Bronzes it's been awarded, we're keen to make our gin a true spirit of the place by managing the process of gin creation all the way from grain to glass.
