EXPLORERS
We all love to EXPLORE. We do it in different ways. Sometimes on the ROAD and sometimes with FLAVOURS or products. Always EXCITING in anticipation of the next DESTINATION.
CRAFTSMEN
Yes, we do it with PASSION, by hand, and we do it FOR YOU. No bull, no additives or scary flavours. Only 100% NATURAL ingredients.
MAKERS
TANKS, tables, shelving, cupboards, BARRELS, picture frames, and hydraulic lifters all destined to be scrapped and destroyed have been brought BACK TO LIFE, true to the brand’s motto of ‘Find and Refine’ & ‘Makers of the Strong Stuff’… giving the distillery a unique soul, PASSION and intrigue. Our Still... Sylvia, HANDMADE and named after our mother & grandmother. Made using 100% RECYCLED materials in the build. The final result yields our MULTI AWARD WINNING spirits.
OUTLAWS
Outlaws, in the sense of being UNCONVENTIONAL and not following all the rules. The Unit43 TEAM is definitely not one who follows the flock. We carve our own STORIES and make our own RULES! We are RUGGED yet REFINED, just like our spirits.
