BOOZE WITH BOTTLE
Our distillery is based in the industrial heart of London’s East End, so we’re not short of old practices. We just choose to ignore them. Favouring what’s to come over what’s come before, our booze is anything but old school. Just how we like it.
The Thames turns through our smiler, our Found Letters were literally ‘found’ around East London and we distil and serve from our corner of Victoria Park. But East is not just where we drink. Being from the East End makes us underdogs in spirit, we flip the V to convention and stick our necks out for change.
Because at East London, we believe everyone deserves a decent drink.
#DRINKEAST
This is your vodka: smooth and creamy in taste and bold in spirit, it’s made from 100% British wheat. Equally amazing with a bit of soda, in a martini or chilled on its own. ‘Nuff said. 70cl bottle.
It’s called a classic for a reason. Our London Dry Gin combines notes of citrus and juniper, ending in a bold, spicy finish. Perfect in the kitchen, on the couch, or for those after-work drinks. 70cl bottle.

Think about it…
If there were no bugs, there would be no plants, which would leave us with no botanicals to jazz up our booze. WILD.
Enter Kew Gin – where East meets West London for the benefit of biodiversity. This Gin is so much more than a killer in a G+T or martini. It’s booze that comes full circle…
Kew’s head botanist hand-harvests a monthly dump of Douglas fir and lavender for distillation and 10% of all sales go back to supporting 260 years of science and 16,000 species of plants. Yup. It’s gin that gives power to the pollinators, because there’s no booze without bugs.
Bright Douglas fir and fresh, floral lavender are rounded out by sweet orange peel and earthy liquorice root and fennel seed, hitting all the right notes on your palate. 70cl bottle; comes with giftbox.

This rum’s roots run through three iconic Jamaican distilleries. So, trust us when we say it’s got the full fruity depth you’re looking for.
This is now your rum. Drink it neat or tame the funk. Just do your worst with it. 70cl bottle.
Made in Guyana from Demerara sugar cane, its buttery caramel and vanilla taste can be traced back to the one-of-a-kind wooden still its distilled in (as well as the ex-bourbon casks it’s kept in). 70cl bottle.
