Crafted from tradition, perfected over time
6 O’clock Gin offers a range of strikingly smooth artisan gins, handcrafted in small batches, using traditional skills and only the best natural ingredients.
It began with a family tradition some 35 years ago, created initially as a base spirit for their timeless Sloe Gin.
Over time, the recipe was refined, resulting in a wonderfully balanced gin with a smooth, clean flavour that stands out.
Distilled in a custom-built copper pot still, dubbed ‘Kathleen’, 6 O’clock Gin is crafted using only the finest natural botanicals and traditional techniques, creating a truly exceptional spirit.
Hidden gem for gin enthusiasts
At the Thornbury distillery, serving as both the brand’s headquarters and manufacturing site, Christmas shoppers can browse a fully stocked shop open during office hours.
It’s the perfect destination for anyone wanting a refined holiday gift.
For those eager to dive deeper, the distillery offers Gin Tours and Gin Experiences, providing an in-depth look at the distillation process, the botanicals used, and tips for the perfect G&T.
Expert guides share the craft’s secrets and make each visit memorable.
