Manchester Gin was launched in 2016 and is the creation of Jen Wiggins and Seb Heeley. The couple, who instantly shared a love of gin and tonics, met in a Manchester bar and in 2015 they decided to develop and launch their own gin together. Manchester Gin features 12 botanicals including Manchester-inspired dandelion and burdock root, and it is distilled in a traditional copper still called Wendy - named after Jen's mother.
