It’s been quite the week and it’s all about being finalists!

On Wednesday Zoe got a call to say she’s an Enterprise Vision Award (EVA) Finalist. These awards recognise women in business across the North West.
Then, on the same day, we opened our email box to find that we’ve been shortlisted in the North Region Best Rural Creative, Artisan or Crafts Business category of the Rural Business Awards. It was also great to see other Cumbrian businesses represented in almost every category.

And if that wasn’t enough, the great news continued when our good friend and collaborator Stephen, Bakes & Balls‘ Gin and Lime Frocolate Truffle were shortlisted for the Nourish Awards! The truffles are made with our Fancy Frolic Gin and are utterly delicious. Limited availability at the moment. Launching soon.

Well done to all the finalists! We’ll keep you posted of the results. Cheers!

"I absolutely love everything about Shed 1 Gin from the wonderful rich flavours to the ethical and responsible way they source their ingredients. As well as their fabulous year round gins their seasonal specials perfectly capture the essence of the season; deep fruity flavours in their Festive Tipple make Christmas just perfect and the light flowery flavours in Fancy Frolic are ideal for whiling away a warm summer evening in the garden"

"I was treated to a selection by the hubby. Cracked open the festive tipple today. Cor blimey what a beauty that gin is. Smooth and very easy to drink. Pure Christmas in a glass. Great craftsmanship Shed 1."

"I just tried the "Giggle in the Ginnel" gin for the first time, and it's fabulous. Really tickles the tongue, I've been trying to guess at the botanicals but have resigned myself to happy, blissful sipping. Smooth, sensational, sublime. 10/10!"

Claire Alexandra, (Happy with her Giggle)

"Lavender florals are apparent on the nose along with strawberry leaf. Buoyancy of fruit and flowers is followed by a pleasant wave of chilli, plus the gin botanicals sitting deep. Tonic opens up the strawberry and florals even further. Some heat and spice on the finish."

About Us & Our Gins

Established in October 2016 by husband and wife team Andy & Zoe Arnold-Bennett in the market town of Ulverston, Cumbria. Shed 1 Distillery produces small batch (36, 50cl, bottles per run), big flavoured gin.

“Smooth enough to be sipped, bold enough to be mixed.” Just 10 months after we launched, in August 2017, we received a Great Taste 2 star (Outstanding) Award for Cuckold’s Revenge. Shed Loads of Love was awarded a 1-star (Simply Delicious) Great Taste in 2018. In 2018 we were a finalist in the Cumbria Life’s Best Drinks Producer category and in 2019 we were awarded “Going Places” (One to Watch) by Cumbria Family Business. Also, Cuckold’s Revenge is included in the latest edition of “101 Gins To Try Before You Die”.
