Cotswolds Distillery launches five-litre gin pouch to cut waste

Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 17 Oct, 13:32 · Archive

Cotswolds Distillery has launched a five-litre refill pouch for its Dry Gin to reduce packaging waste and carbon emissions.

Cotswolds Distillery has launched a five-litre refill pouch for its award-winning Cotswolds Dry Gin, designed to reduce packaging waste and carbon emissions. The pouch is available exclusively at the distillery and its retail shops in Broadway and Bourton-on-the-Water, offering customers a greener way to top up their bottles.

The lightweight pouch weighs nearly 60 per cent less than glass and is widely recyclable at supermarkets, cutting down on both packaging waste and transport emissions. Founder Dan Szor said the move highlights the distillery's focus on sustainability. The five-litre pouch is priced at £180 and contains gin made with nine botanicals, including locally grown lavender and fresh citrus zest.

The launch forms part of the distillery's broader environmental efforts, which include an on-site wetlands ecological treatment system that naturally processes wastewater while supporting local wildlife. Founded in 2014, Cotswolds Distillery has become the largest producer of English single malt whisky and draws more than 100,000 visitors each year to its location near Shipston-on-Stour.
