Jaywick Martello Tower Summer Talk: East Coast Distillery
Join Ben who is the Co-Owner and Distiller at East Coast Distillery, a small batch gin distillery located just outside Thorpe-le-Soken in Tendring, North Essex.
Proud to be able to celebrate the beauty and the character of the Essex Coast the team do everything themselves creating spirits that use foraged and locally sourced botanicals to produce every bottle of Gin so that each one brings happiness to the gin lover.
Hear more about the history of Gin, why the team opened the distillery, and maybe try a sample of their signature Essex Dry Gin made with Sea Purslane and Sea Buckthorn berries.
