‘Spooky spirits’ will be satisfying visitors’ thirst for horror at a local distillery’s new Halloween-themed cocktails experience this month.

Visitors to Warwickshire Gin Co. over the next two weeks can expect plenty of creepy creations as part of their Cocktails At The Distillery Experience – including the limited-edition Witches Brew, Vampire’s Kiss and Zombie Brains.

The fun seasonal recipes are made using three of the Leamington distillery’s signature drinks from the gin, rum and vodka collections. The inspiration behind the drinks collection comes from a desire to capture a moment in history, developing flavours to fully represent the county’s own unique story and bringing the range of hand-crafted flavours to life.

Vampire’s Kiss, Witches Brew, and Zombie Brains

Vampire’s Kiss is made using WGC’s gold award-winning Kingmaker Vodka, inspired by the story of Richard Neville, The Earl of Warwick and containing a unique hint of frankincense to provide a regal smooth finish.

Witches Brew is made using WGC’ Pugilist Ghost White Rum as a base spirit. The rum, balanced with rosehip peel, rose petals, apple and cherries, is inspired by Randolph Turpin who went down in British boxing history for sensationally winning the World Title from the legendary Sugar Ray Robinson earning himself the memorable nickname ‘The Leamington Licker.’ Born in Leamington of Guyana heritage, Turpin became a hero overnight!

The distillery’s multi-award-winning Kingmaker Gin is central to the Zombie Brains cocktail recipe. Like the Kingmaker vodka, the gin celebrates Richard Neville, The Earl of Warwick, using fruits of the forest, which would have been accessible and growing freely in the hedgerows of England at the time of his power.
