Local Tring distillery gains further recognition at the London Spirits Competition

Small-batch gin producer Puddingstone Distillery has been awarded two gold medals and two silver medals in the 2021 London Spirit Competition for its Campfire Gin range. This is a great achievement for the Hertfordshire-based nano craft gin distillery, founded by Ben and Kate Marston, which first opened its doors in 2016.

It might be called the London Spirits Competition but the awards attract hundreds of entries from all over the world. The gins are judged on three areas – quality, value and packaging. In commercial terms if the price and packaging do not equal the quality of the spirit in the bottle then the London Spirits Competition will not recognise the gin as an award-winning spirit.
