Silent Pool<br />
Situated on the Albury Estate in the<br />
heart of the Surrey Hills, the distillery<br />
sits adjacent to its namesake, The Silent<br />
Pool, a tranquil body of water that dates<br />
back to The Ice Age. Distilled from 24<br />
different botanicals, which are collected<br />
where possible from the local area, Silent<br />
Pool Gin uses Bosnian juniper berries,<br />
liquorice root, cassia bark, orris, and<br />
bergamot, alongside honey sourced from<br />
a neighbouring beekeeper in its secret<br />
recipe. The distillers work closely with<br />
local farms and fruit producers in the<br />
area and uses their leftover fruit to make<br />
limited edition small batch gins including<br />
blackberry and damson gin, apricot<br />
aperitivo, and greengage gin. <br />
