Hear ye, hear ye 😂 This will be Corner 53’s last Christmas making our most beloved gin, rum and cello. It’s been a wild ride, but I’ve decided that it’s time to move on from this totally remarkable, lovely, gut wrenching, rewarding and exhausting project to something new. 1/3

every penny will go on to fund a big, exciting and positive new project waiting in the wings. We will continue to sell the Corner 53 products until we run out in December and will try to accommodate every order we can.

have a substantial amount of thank you’s to reel off over the next 2 months, but each will deserve more than a foot note from me in a post. . Much love, Tom (that dude who built a distillery in his parents garden).

We made 99 bottles of Blood Orangecello last month...after preorders I only had 8 left in the distillery 😂 if anyone fancies trying what it tastes like to bite into sunshine the last couple of bottles are on the website

Controversial question by the @IBDHQ 😂😂😂

I think I’m showing my controversial opinion in gin production here...
W.E A.R.E C.L.O.S.I.N.G D.O.W.N So on the advice the ineffable Mr Sunak, myself and Jamie will be forthwith stopping Corner Fifty Three and changing our careers! I am super excited about acting in the new Guy Richie film about a brooding football referee with and dark past...

Interesting distillery trivia...at 15 I used to straighten my hair every morning...bring the look back for trade events maybe? 😅

Our rum is now up on our new fan-dangled website with free nationwide delivery to boot, I’m super happy with how it turned out and the butter/coffee/orange/cacao combo just works so well

I loved watching this label come together with our fantastic co-founder/designer Richard. He layers so much detail into each piece (including little dairy cows) into each masterwork he does. He’s almost made up for abandoning everyone and moving to Canada...

As much as I pretend being a distillery is a sexy job, it’s so much standing at a repurposed kitchen counter stringing bottles and dancing around to MCR pretending I’m still 16

I’d like to use Twitter a little bit more reactively than our other social media platforms, as it’s only me (Tom) who uses it would the neglected following on here be more interested in hearing...

Our attitude to twitter has been aloof at best over our time here, but we’d love to become more involved in the dialogue and debates on here around our bright and sometime controversial industry! So hello, were ready to hash out some of this big topics!

It’s no secret that we’re big fans of the work of our friends at @corner53spirits 🙌 Distilled in a shed on the edge of the South Downs, the spirits are a real labour of love, and you can certainly feel it when you take the first swig... Please enjoy responsibly #gingin #ginbar
