Behind the Story of Bloom Gin London 

BLOOM Gin was created by one of the world’s leading authorities on gin, Master Distiller, Joanne Moore, a woman who has won more awards for gin distilling than possibly anyone else on the planet. The things that woman can do with a juniper berry, you wouldn’t believe… 

Working with only natural ingredients, Joanne created a deliciously light London Dry gin with soft nuances of chamomile, honeysuckle and pomelo, giving BLOOM its signature smoothness, creating a fresh twist on an old favourite. BLOOM has since gone on to make gin lovers of us pretty much everyone who’s tasted it – try it and see for yourself!
