Chase GB Extra Dry Gin is a British gin that reflects a field-to-bottle approach, with a strong emphasis on raw ingredient control and in-house production. Produced by Chase Distillery, it is made using a base spirit distilled from potatoes grown on the distillery’s own farm. This sets it apart from most gins, which typically use grain-based neutral spirit, and gives the production a fully traceable starting point.
The "GB" in the name refers to the key botanicals - juniper, hops, and apple - sourced from across Britain. These are distilled together with a selection of supporting botanicals, with the aim of creating a distinctly British profile rooted in local ingredients. The production remains entirely on site, from growing the base material through to distillation and bottling, reflecting a self-contained approach that is relatively uncommon in large-scale gin production. It is positioned as a contemporary dry gin that builds on traditional structure while introducing a more regionally focused botanical selection.
