Founded by the father and son team, David & Luke Ridden, the distillery came about from a trip to the USA, where the pair discovered and enjoyed community-centric bars that cultivated a sense of community, uniqueness and belonging. With a passion for craft spirits, the trip cemented an idea we had long had of launching a neighbourhood-based distillery in honour of our Granddad Jack, a man known for his resilience, loyal friendship, integrity, and hard work.
