Slingsby Gin is a brand deeply rooted in the heritage, landscape, and quiet sophistication of Harrogate, the historic Yorkshire spa town long associated with wellness, refinement, and genteel leisure. For centuries, Harrogate attracted royalty, aristocrats, and social elites who sought the restorative qualities of its mineral-rich waters, transforming the town into a symbol of British elegance, health, and cultured living. Slingsby draws upon this heritage, positioning itself as a gin inspired not only by botanicals, but by a sense of place, tradition, and refined English identity.
The brand takes its name from Samuel Slingsby, the 16th-century figure credited with discovering Harrogate’s famous mineral springs — a moment that would forever shape the town’s destiny. This historical connection gives Slingsby Gin a foundation anchored in discovery, nature, and legacy, transforming a local story into a modern luxury narrative. The gin reflects the idea that great spirits, like great towns, are shaped by time, environment, and a commitment to quality.
