Sandbach gin business branches out into the next town with the launch of a new tipple
By Deborah Bowyer 1st Nov 2022
A Sandbach based gin business has come up with its latest offering - a gin for Alsager named after the town's Domesday name.
The Winding River Distillery, run by husband and wife, Matthew and Suzanne Fox from their Wheelock home, has launched its Eleacier gin for the Manor House Hotel & Spa in Alsager.
Eleacier was the name recorded for Alsager in the Domesday Book and the gin has been developed with this name bearing the town's coat of arms.
The crest features a chevron showing three wheat sheaves for Cheshire and is included on the label for the new gin.
Matthew said: "The crest is of the town's coat of arms and the name comes from the Domesday Book. We think it looks particularly classy.
"We're excited about this new gin and have a few events lined up where the gin will be officially launched."

The gin is on sale at the Manor House Hotel & Spa which opened a luxurious £1.7 million country spa garden in August.
The Winding River Distillery is named after the River Wheelock in Sandbach near where the couple live.

They set up the business after a holiday to Sorrento ignited their love for the Italian liqueur Limoncello.
They set about making it and then went on to other liqueurs before branching out into gin.
