Hepple is for those who believe in vivid colour – even at the risk of an ever-so-slight clash… we have been producing for over five years now and travelling around the world to explain who we are and why make our products in the way we do. And what we have found is that in overwhelming numbers, the people who love our gin are those who stand out from the crowd. Frankly speaking, some of you are a little colourful. Yes, you know who you are. Sometimes you clash. But we quite like that. That’s why we get on. – from Instagram

Hepple water arrives in the mists and clouds that roll over the empty hills that surround us. Not a drop flows from neighbouring land; all fell from above and has spent years percolating through the sandstone and limestone strata to emerge at the juniper belt across our hills in myriad springs. When we say it is pristine, we really do know it is. This same water feeds our juniper, runs our distillery and then freezes in our radiators over Christmas when we are away. – from Instagram

The gnarled and twisted habit of juniper makes every tree entirely unique and thick with personality. In the eyes of the dull and prosaic – and we know no one who reads our posts is that – the bald reason for these rope-like twists is the battering the trees take from the winds that wail over the moors, but we suspect our readers will feel more sympathy with the idea that actually juniper just simply LIKES it that way. Yes, It gets a kick out of its wild contortions, it rather admires its neighbour’s skew-whiff haircut, it aims for the unusual, the unruly, the controversial. We think, as we ourselves age, we’ll be the same, won’t we? – from Instagram

Hawthorn bushes produce the brightest red berries in the winter and stunning white and pink flowers in the spring, and they are beginning to come out now. We reckon we are about three weeks behind London, Hamburg and Copenhagen, a month behind Milan… but almost exactly the same time as New York City… ie now. Friends in New York, I do recommend looking at the nycgovparks site to find your nearest flowering hawthorn in NYC – from Instagram
