Yiayia Gin is a tribute to the culinary flavours of Greece. Handcrafted in small batches, it blends classic juniper with Greek botanicals, including oregano, rose pelargonium, vine leaves, fig leaves and lemon. The flavours includes aromatic herbal layers and a gentle, rounded juniper heart, finishing with a soft, lingering warmth that evokes Mediterranean sunshine. Awarded Gold at the Great British Food Awards, Yiayia Gin combines Shed One’s small-batch craftsmanship with authentic Greek character. Perfect for sipping neat and in a classic G&T. Share with friends. It is a celebration of culture, flavour, and artisanal skill. This was a special collaboration between Zoe of Shed One Distillery and Irini Tzotzorglou, a Masterchef Champion. Plus, both Lindsay and Thea of Shed One Distillery assisted with the mixing and tastings. As well as creating it, Zoe distilled it and designed the label, making it a fully women-led project. Adam Handling was the Head Judge for this category for The Great British Food Awards, and we are delighted that his comments reflected what we were aiming to create. He said, “Nose: floral, delicate, citrus, sweet, cucumber; Palate: delicate, fragrant, soft peppery note, floral clean, umami and savoury. Excellent gin with elegance and complexity, foraged and sourced all in the UK (except the juniper) with an innovative concept of Mediterranean flavours. A super artisanal and female-led project.” 42%abv 70cl 100% recycled glass. You can find out all about Yiayia Gin here.
