Gin arguably has one the most colourful stories in British history - although obviously at Sacred, our story is crystal clear!

Today marks Sacred’s last day with our formidable Commercial Director, Alexander Jeffreys. He’s dedicated seven years of his life to Sacred, so we thought we’d give him his well deserved five minutes of fame with a run down of his very best bits of Sacred.

What a shame to miss out on one of those delightful drinks at the end of the day to rejuvenate you!
