Old Canon Brewery's Spirit of Gunner's Daughter

As we march towards the end of 2012 - our first year in full production - we have a cracker to finish off.

One of Bury St Edmunds' most delightful secrets is the Old Canon Brewery. You must check it out - it will become an instant favourite. We've made a malt spirit with them from their superb Gunner's Daughter. Drop by and have a sip!

Little Bowden WI

A very big thank you to the fine ladies of Little Bowden WI for being an attentive, intelligent and fun audience at last night's tasting.

Now returning to the distillery and enjoying the crisp winter minus six morn.

Stamford Christmas Fayre

It is a spectacular wintry morn. Not cold and very sunny. Lovely. All set up at Stamford to share the English Spirit. On until 4 today.

Lavenham Christmas Fayre

Christmas lights set to light up this evening in the tourist magnet of Lavenham. We are here today and tomorrow. Specials include our Christmas Spirit and our Malted Spirit - no need to wait.

Bottling off malted spirit today

Malted spirit, aged out not, is one of life's true delights. It was minus four this morning and making this drop really puts cheer into you. Available soon through our online shop.

A snowy start to the day

With sixteen days to go to the shortest day we had put first snowfall during the night. Whiskey on the stills today!

A civilised start to the morning

At Stonham Barns today. Lovely coffee shop. Tea and sausage sandwich for £4.50. Very good. Winter sun is brilliant. Sky blue and it is minus three.

We are also at the spectacular Bur well market this afternoon and so is Santa.

Stonham Barns

It has been another incredibly busy week. We have been making two different eau de vie, superb whiskey for Frog Island Brewery, Chodka, Christmas Spirit and the usual delights.

This weekend you can come and sample our delicious spirits at Stonham Barns, Creake Abbey, Summerhill Farm Shop and Center PARC's at Elveden.

Next week we are focusing on whiskey!
