Golden Retriever Gin
£6.50 / £35.00Over the past six years, Persie Distillery has raised more than £30,000 for animal welfare. Every year the team chooses one or two new charities for a dedicated fundraising endeavour. We create a gin to reflect a particular cause and commit to donating upwards of £500 with the final amount based on the number of bottle sales.
Golden Retriever Gin is the latest in the Persie Charity Collection! This special bottling is in collaboration with Canine Partners, who are celebrating 35 years of partnering physically disabled people with assistance dogs to bring greater independence and quality of life.
Simon, Persie Head Honcho Distiller and MD, explains why they opted for an assistance dog charity: “We are determined that our Charity Collection gins are not just about making a donation – they are about making a difference. Canine Partners takes just 18 months to train assistance dogs to manage everyday tasks which are difficult, painful or impossible for individuals with a physical disability. These guys are actively transforming lives and helping people have a better future. That’s inspirational.”

The name of the new gin was fairly obvious as Golden Retrievers are one of the breeds most suited to being an assistance dog. And anyone who knows a Golden will understand why the essence of the breed has been captured with a sweet and warming profile! There are faint notes of Madagascan vanilla on the nose, a hint of almond and a gingerbread finish so that the heart of the gin is brimming with cosiness.
Flavour profile
Floral juniper, warming ginger and vanilla-sweet notes
with a hint of almond.*
Suggested serve
Mix with tonic or ginger ale.
Garnish with a wedge of orange or piece of honeycomb.*The gin is nut-free and vegan. The recipe was inspired by the distillery’s popular Old Tom gin which has been going since 2016.
One last thing! We know that Goldens come in a variety of shapes and sizes, so if you would like a picture of your dog (or dogs!) with their name(s) on the back label of a 50cl bottle that’s no problem at all. Just follow the instructions below 🙂

Golden Retriever Gin follows the launch of Labrador Gin, Spaniel Gin and Dachshund Gin Liqueur in 2018, with each bottle sold raising funds for Scottish dog rescue charity PADS. Pusscat Vodka launched in 2020 as a fundraiser for Edinburgh Dog & Cat Home. The limited edition Charity Collection has featured Terrier Gin for Terrier SOS (2022), Whippet Gin for JR Whippet Rescue (2023) and Unbridled Gin for World Horse Welfare (2024). Each Charity Collection spirit has raised between £1,000 and £5,000 for the nominated charity.

Persie Tonic
£2.25 / £6.00Persie Tonic has landed!
Over the past few years we have been on the hunt for the perfect tonic. A tonic that doesn’t fight with the gin. A tonic that lets the spirit breathe. A tonic made in Scotland.
This was our mission!
– First and foremost, we want to taste the gin!
– We don’t want any artificial sweeteners or flavouring.
– We only want natural quinine.
– We want it to be gently carbonated.
– We want it to be produced locally.
– Not a dealbreaker, but we’d like it to be low-ish in calories!And here it is! From the wonderful chaps at Bon Accord Soft Drinks company in Edinburgh comes a light, refreshing tonic – and, just as requested, it is low in flavour, low in quinine and low in carbonation. So it’s all about the spirit! Yay! They have truly cracked it.
With only 33 calories per serve, Persie Tonic pairs beautifully with all our gins and works like a charm with our vodka.
Persie Tonic is available in 200ml glass bottles.
Delivery to UK only within 5 working days. Free shipping for orders over £75. To ship abroad please contact snifter@persiedistillery.com for details.

Unbridled Gin
£6.00 / £35.00Unbridled Gin is the latest in the Persie Charity Collection!
Animal welfare is a cause close to our hearts so we are hugely enthusiastic (you might say we are full of unbridled excitement!) about creating a bespoke spirit to raise much-needed funds to support the fantastic work at World Horse Welfare.
It is the only charity that seeks to improve the lives of all equids (horses, ponies, donkeys and mules), whatever the nature of their relationship with humankind. World Horse Welfare’s vision is a world where suffering is stamped out and all these animals are treated with respect, compassion and understanding. For more information about their work click here.
And the gin itself? Unsurprisingly Unbridled Gin features horse-friendly apples!
We wanted the gin to celebrate the exhilarating experience of a good hack, so there are top notes of fresh cut grass and apples and heart notes of hay and sandalwood. We have created a spirit that captures the warmth of that special bond between horse and rider – and with £5.00 per bottle donated to World Horse Welfare it leaves you feeling a warm glow on two levels.
Botanicals: Apples and juniper.
Flavour profile: Lightly floral with a faint nose of apples. It is sweet on the nose but dry on the palate.
Suggested serve: Mix with tonic, lemonade or Appletiser. Garnish with a wedge of fresh green apple and slice of carrot!This limited edition is available in 50cl size or 5cl miniature. And if you would like a picture of your horse or pony to feature on the back of the 50cl bottle that’s no problem at all! Just upload an image below and we will do the rest.
If you would like to buy the matching Pony Coaster, click here.
The support from Unbridled Gin will help World Horse Welfare change the lives of many equines across the world. (Registered charity no 206658 and SC038384.) Join us as we play a part in safeguarding their comfort and dignity and sharing their magic!

RSGS Explorer’s Gin
£33.00We have teamed up with our friends at the Royal Scottish Geographical Society to create a dedicated RSGS Explorer’s Gin!
Sales from the gin will go towards supporting the charity’s most pressing concerns – from climate change to food systems, from unsustainable transport to health inequalities, from urban design to biodiversity loss. As we face increasingly complex environmental and social challenges across the globe, the charity’s vision of promoting greater understanding of people, places and the planet is needed more than ever before. For more information about their work click here.
Hand-crafted in Perthshire, the geographical heart of Scotland, this special edition has been created in small batches using natural botanicals, resulting in a quality that can’t be replicated at large scale. It has top notes of Caledonian pinewood followed by the warmth of peppery heather. The result is a fresh, grassy gin with a softly spiced finish.
The suggested serve is with tonic, Mediterranean tonic, lemonade or ginger ale. Garnish with a sprig of rosemary to tap into the herbaceous notes, or a wedge of grapefruit to give the gin a citrus kick.
RSGS Explorer’s Gin is available in 50cl standard size. If you would like to order online and collect your bottle from the RSGS HQ in Perth, please click the box below.
If you would like us to ship the gin to you, please allow 5 working days for us to deliver your order. Delivery to UK only.

Pinewood Conservation Gin
£34.00In collaboration with The National Trust for Scotland (NTS), we have created the wonderfully fresh and floral Pinewood Conservation Gin. Made with botanicals foraged from the wild heart of the Cairngorms, every purchase of Pinewood Conservation Gin supports their efforts to protect the pinewoods of Mar Lodge Estate and restore them to their former glory.
Caledonian pinewood is an iconic and much-loved natural and cultural resource of the Scottish Highlands. Statuesque ‘granny’ pines are scattered through the glens, many over 200 years old. The pinewood supports magnificent species such as pine marten, red squirrel, golden eagle, and the rare and diminutive twinflower.
But this woodland has been through hard times. Exploitation for timber, clearance of trees to create grazing land, and centuries of heavy grazing stifling natural regeneration has resulted in a woodland that is a shadow of its former self. Reduced in extent, fragmented and with an aging and dying population of trees, the future was looking grim.
The National Trust for Scotland is turning this around at Mar Lodge Estate National Nature Reserve, which holds nearly one thousand hectares of Scotland’s Caledonian pinewood. Young naturally seeded pines are now emerging from the heather in and around the forest, along with other species such as birch, rowan and willow. Under the ongoing care of the National Trust for Scotland we are working feverishly to restore the woodland to its former glory.
Pinewood Conservation Gin uses botanicals from plants found on the estate. Bog Myrtle and Wood Sorrel bring floral aromatics to the nose, Birch and Scot’s Pine lend a herbaceous, savoury body, and Blaeberries bring a warming honey-rich sweetness to the taste.
Pinewood Conservation Gin is 40% ABV and is available in 50cl bottles.
Please allow 5 working days for us to deliver your order. Delivery to UK through the website. For delivery beyond the UK please email snifter@persiedistillery.com. Free shipping for orders over £75.
