While it's mostly known as a tourist spot today, it has a rich history that involves smugglers and fishermen. In the 19th century, it was a bustling port town that played a large role in fruit trade and was known for its \"Salcombe Fruiters\", small schooners that were built for speed ― a crucial factor in the transportation of fresh fruit. Steamships took over the fruit trade at the turn of the century and it wasn't until 1951 that sailboats came back in full force with the founding of the Island Cruising Club. It's there that Salcombe Gin co-founders first met in 1995. The pair would end each day of sailing with a gin \u0026amp; tonic at the Salcombe Yacht Club, eventually finding a common interest in the distilling industry. It was in 2014 that the idea took the form of the Salcombe Distilling Co.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nAfter months of experimentation, their first gin was born. Start Point is a London dry style spirit that was initially distilled using 60-liter copper pot stills. As the operation grew, the main still became a 450-liter one, nicknamed Provident. Today Salcombe Distilling operates their Boathouse distillery, a tasting bar, a yacht gin delivery service, and a gin school, with plans of launching a \"distillery at sea\" aboard the Iona. Their gins have garnered numerous awards, including the coveted \"Double Gold\" at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nSalcombe Gin Rosé Sainte Marie was launched in 2019 and takes its inspiration from the aromas and flavors of Southern France. It's named after the famous lighthouse at the Old Port of Marseille where those fruit schooners from Salcombe used to load citrus fruits and herbs. It's a fresh and delicate gin that invokes the spirit of the Mediterranean and one of only 2 pink gins to have won a \"Double Gold\" at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition. Crafted with Macedonian juniper berries, strawberries, angelica, lemon and orange peels, lemon verbena, rose petals, orange blossom, pink peppercorns, and other botanicals, it's soft, smooth, and elegant with no added sugar.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nGrab your bottle today!\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"caskers-spirit-type-info\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"story-subtitle\"\u003eAbout Gin\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAccording to Winston Churchill, \"The gin and tonic has saved more Englishmen's lives and minds than all the doctors in the Empire,\" referring to the British officers using it to treat malaria in India.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInitially made for medicinal purposes, gin gets most of its flavor from the juniper berries added after the distillation process.
