HUMDINGER GIN

THE COUPLE
Their journey began at a wedding in 2019, marked by a few casual words, ample encouragement, imaginative ideas, and a healthy dose of bravado. A copper still soon followed, giving rise to Humdinger.

At the helm of Humdinger is Andrew Lewis, the resident tinkerer, a professional engineer with an unwavering dedication to perfecting each batch of gin. His partner in this venture is Saskia, a technologist by profession and a biologist by training. Together, they bring a blend of expertise, with Andrew focusing on smoothness and Saskia injecting spice and flavor enhancements.

When not engaged in the art of crafting gin, this dynamic couple, who dared to dream big, assume various roles - from recipe development to breaking conventional rules, and from building and labeling to marketing.

NATURE'S INGREDIENTS
Humdinger takes pride in sourcing raw materials directly from nature. Every element, from coriander seeds to juniper berries and ginger roots, plays a vital role in the botanical produce used faithfully in their distillery.

To sustain the abundance of botanicals, Humdinger recognizes its reliance on the industrious honey bee. These remarkable creatures efficiently pollinate food crops and contribute to the flourishing of wild flora, ensuring the seamless continuation of the cycle of life.
