CASTLE GATE GIN
An infusion of acorns and passion
Weavers is the home to Castle Gate Gin. The adventure started with Mary, who is one half of the 5th generation to own and run wine and spirit merchants, Weavers of Nottingham in the centre of Nottingham’s high street where this spirit of Nottingham was born. Inspired by Nottinghamshire's very own Sherwood Forest, this award-winning Castle Gate Gin really is a taste of home.

Award Winning Gin inspired by Sherwood Forest
Castle Gate Classic Dry
This is the first of our unique gins inspired by Sherwood Forest. Through the use of acorns, the gin shows a slight nuttiness and makes for a brilliant classic G&T.
Castle Gate Pink Strawberry & Lavender
This fruit driven gin was inspired by the family's nostalgia of strawberry picking as children. This marriage with light touches of lavender is a winning combination, especially on a hot summers day!
Making the Perfect G&T
Classic Dry
For our classic dry we recommend either a natural Indian tonic water or Mediterranean tonic with a grapefruit or orange garnish.\n\nMost importantly, our gin is to be enjoyed so we welcome you all to experiment and tell us what your favourite serve is. \n\n
Perfect Pink
Our Strawberry and Lavender gin works wonderfully with an elderflower tonic and a fresh mint garnish. Tell us about your favourite garnish.
Making the Flavour
Making the Recipe
Here is Mary with the still, enjoying the recipe coming together. The acorns give off a lovely nutty aroma.
Foraging
All good gins starts with a good forage! Mary and family love foraging for these little beauties which are then dried, peeled and ground before being added to the copper pot still for distillation.
