Gin description
A gin flavored with damson plum, a small, dark plum that gives it its deep color and fruity profile. Launched as a new expression in 2023, it maintains a clean gin base while adding a richer, fruitier dimension. Its recipe is based on a small-batch London Dry Gin, infused with over 10 carefully selected botanicals. The result remains distinctly gin-driven, with a sophisticated, balanced, and understated expression. Its identity is also inspired by the Lake District and the local dialect used by Cumbrian shepherds to count their Herdwick sheep, where “Yan” means “one.” A fruity, distinctive gin, deeply connected to its terroir.
