Launched in October 2016 by husband and wife team Andy & Zoe Arnold-Bennett in the market town of Ulverston, Cumbria, Shed 1 Distillery produces award-winning, small batch, classically distilled craft gin with a contemporary-style.
“Smooth enough to be sipped, bold enough to be mixed.”
We started in our Garden Shed and moved to The Old Calf Shed in 2019. Here, we opened a Visitor Attraction, which won The Icons of Gin, BEST VISITOR ATTRACTION, 2022. We host Cumbria’s only Make Your Own Gin Experiences, as well as Distillery Tours & Tastings and a botanical-inspired Afternoon G&Tea. Our awards include Great Taste, Crafdi and The World Gin Awards, plus the Gin Distillery won The Gin Guide’s, ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITY AWARD, in both 2020 & 2021. Cuckold’s Revenge, the very first Gin we created, is featured in “101 Gins To Try Before You Die”! We’re looking forward to seeing you at The Shed, in the meantime all online orders include free, nationwide, delivery. Cheers!
