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.
When I was at Bristol studying Chemistry, I picked up a job working behind the bar at a place called Red Light and another called The Doghouse. I started to become interested in spirits and particularly, as it was around 2014-15, gin. The gin category at this...
Old Tom is a firm favourite amongst our wonderful team (Retail Manager Ana, we’re looking at you!), but also among our customers. In fact, we have one lovely lady who frequently visits our Highgate Distillery to purchase our Old Tom despite not liking gin!

To mark World Aperitivo Day on 26 May, we talked to Sarah Weston, Herb Field Manager at the Organic Herb Trading, who is responsible for growing all the organic wormwood, thyme and savory that contributes to the deliciousness of Sacred's world beating English vermouths!
Somewhat serendipitously, Sarah worked in off-licences for many years before she embarked on a career in horticulture but she is now a committed organic grower with a wealth of experience. She has worked on a biodynamic research farm in Northern India, helped organic gardening expert Jekka McVicar and her team to win gold medals across...
We've all been there: the end of a the working (from home) day, and we really fancy a bar-quality cocktail. "But I've had a tiring day...oh well, I'll make the effort next week." What a shame to miss out on one of those delightful drinks at the end of the day to rejuvenate you! Fear not, Sacred's got you covered, with two delicious, world-class cocktails in bottles, ready to drink, to pour, to host: enter The Negroni and The Dry Martini.
That ruby red, bittersweet taste of the...
We chat to Jesse about how he got into cooking, his toughest critic and the trials of opening a business during the pandemic.
We take you through some of our favourite garnish ideas to make your cocktails stand out this summer.
In celebration of English Wine Week and as producers of English Vermouth, we talk to Martin Fowke from Three Choirs vineyard in Gloucestershire.
At the time of writing, there is a light, but steady drizzle rolling down the windows which is a great excuse to retreat with a glass of something Sacred and a good book...
