Before there was a bar, there was a gin. 🩵🍸
It’s International Gin & Tonic Day, so we’re taking a little trip down memory lane.
Back in 2021, Southsea Spirit started with a bottle of Tropical Gin, a whole lot of enthusiasm and absolutely no idea where it would take us.
Five years later, that same little blue bottle still sits proudly behind the bar of our very own neighbourhood watering hole on Albert Road.
And while Southsea Spirit has grown into something much bigger than we ever imagined, our Tropical Gin is still very much part of the family.
You can enjoy it in a G&T at the bar, or pick up a bottle to take a little Southsea Spirit home with you.
So here’s to the humble G&T, the gin that started it all, and everything that came after it! 🥂
Who’s been with us since the gin days? 👀
Tiny Bar. Big Spirit.
