About our Spirit of the Month: What is Manchester Gin Signature?

The story behind The Spirit of Manchester Distillery and our passion for spirits began with Manchester Gin. Signature was the first award-winning gin Jen & Seb created from their home, back in 2016 - their dining room even won a Gold Microdistillery Medal! Taking inspiration from their Northern roots, the gin is distilled with 12 botanicals, with a primary focus on dandelion and burdock root, and citrusy lemon & orange flavours making it a perfect balance of crisp and smooth notes. It’s a Northern classic.
