The Story

Sky Wave Gin is about carpe diem, seizing the moment, adventure and exhilaration. It is an ultra-premium gin, for the drinker who wishes to rise above the rest.

Unable to find their perfect gin, founders Rachel Hicks and Andrew Parsons seized the moment and created their own – to reflect the adventures they have had travelling through skies and over waves to far flung corners of the globe.

Sky Wave Gin creates all its artisan gins by hand and with passion. Every stage of distillation, bottling and packaging is carried out in its boutique distillery, at the quirky Bicester Heritage site in Oxfordshire, a former RAF base now the home of historic motoring and backdrop to Hollywood films. The distillery also has a tasting room with shop and bar offering weekly Distillery Experiences with Curated Gin Tastings along with corporate and private events.

Sky Wave Gin’s Master Distiller, Andrew Parsons, has created a number of bespoke gins for other brands, including Blenheim Palace Signature London Dry, which is picking up its own medals in international spirits competitions.
