SILENT POOL GIN
Drawn by a common passion for craft distilling, in 2013 a group of friends came together to create a new kind of distillery, producing handcrafted, artisan spirits with uncompromising quality. In an extraordinary location on the Duke of Northumberland’s Albury Estate, a group of dilapidated farm buildings on the banks of the legendary & mystical Silent Pool has been transformed to become the home of the Silent Pool Distillers.
They sourced local ingredients, exotic botanicals, and experimented with all kinds of recipes – sometimes failing, forever seeking, but always refusing to compromise on quality. Until finally, they created a gin of rare taste and beauty using over 20 botanicals in the distillation process and christening Silent Pool Gin after its place of birth. It’s popularity quickly spread from the local community to now amassing an enviable reputation across the world, winning an abundance of prestigious industry awards.
The Silent Pool distillery is not just about crafting exceptional gin; it's a commitment to sustainability. From solar panels generating power to a closed-loop glycol cooling system and boilers powered by hydrogenated vegetable oil and local sustainable forests, Silent Pool Gin strives for eco-friendly practices. Embracing its local community, the distillery supports beekeeping, sourcing honey from the village beekeeper, that is used in our innovative distillation process providing its signature roundness. Provenance matters, and Silent Pool Gin's unique characteristics and sustainable practices set it apart. The Surrey Hills and Silent Pool location, steeped in nature shape the brand's identity.
The premium quality extends to the beautifully designed bottle, adorned with a handcrafted copper floral pattern and a satisfyingly heavy glass stopper. The gin's success is not only evident in its rapid growth and international recognition but also in its loyal consumer base and trade acclaim. Silent Pool Gin is more than a drink; it's a lifestyle.
The first of the series, released in 2015. Silent Pool Gin captures the very essence of the Silent Pool and the surrounding Surrey Hills, an area of outstanding natural beauty, where the distillery is based. The location of their distillery is full of ingredients their expert Distillers used in the intricate recipe development process, allowing them to sustainably source the signature botanicals in their luxury English Gin. From Chamomile and Elderflower that grows in abundance around the Silent Pool to the roses and lavender that line the local village, Albury.
Silent Pool Gin is a classic gin at heart featuring over 24 botanicals. Full-bodied and fresh with depth, clarity and above all else, flavour. It's a rich, clean, juniper-driven spirit with floral layers of lavender and chamomile. Fresh notes of citrus and kaffir lime are grounded with the subtle sweetness of local honey, creating a well-balanced gin that's both traditional and refreshingly individual. Its inspiration is taken from the Silent Pool, the ancient spring nestled in the heart of the Surrey Hills that boasts crystal-clear water fed from a chalk aquifer. Its beauty inspired the bottle design and liquid.

Silent Pool Black Juniper Gin Silent Pool Rose Expression Gin
Crafted with the rarest juniper and most exotic botanicals including oud and cloud tea to deliver a unique layered gin experience. In their quest to create the world’s most distinctive gin, they sought the rarest and purest juniper and found it in the Himalayan Kingdom of Bhutan. The juniper only grows above 4000 metres in pristine mountain air and sunshine. It is sustainably collected by a resident team in the mountains who know exactly where this jewel of Bhutan can be found. Sipping Black Juniper Gin introduces you to the finest ingredients in the world in a complex but delicate layering of flavour to create a uniquely ethereal taste and aroma.
Nose: Clean and pronounced. Perfume and incense with a subtle smoke. Underpinned with pine-rich juniper and a warming spice.
Palate: Silky and pronounced mouth feel. Strong juniper graciously subsides into perfumed agarwood. A spiced pepper foundation is complemented by an amalgamation of distinctive teas with delicate caramel notes. A well-rounded profile sees each flavour complement the last in this impressively considered gin.
Finish: Long and complex, slightly smoky and perfumed finish. A beautiful celebration of classic dry gin and contemporary execution.
Taste all their products side by side and you will find that they all share the same DNA; handcrafted, multilayered, and bursting with complex flavours that evolve as you experience them. There are many ways of making gin, and most of them are simpler than the methods they employ. But Silent Pool passionately believes it is well worth the extra effort!
