Wild Moon, an esteemed Welsh distillery renowned for its exceptional spirits, is set to broaden its portfolio with an innovative Vodka. Nestled in Wrexham, North Wales, this distillery, founded by Jade Garston—our very own Welsh Witch—has conjured forth a distinctive vodka brimming with authentic flavors. Infused with inspiration drawn from Welsh pagan folklore, this vodka marks the sixth entrant in the distillery’s esteemed collection of premium spirits.
Dubbed “Lammas,” this new vodka draws its moniker from a significant phase of the Wheel of the Year—a spirited celebration of the inaugural grain harvest. This juncture symbolises the act of reaping the harvest’s bounty and expressing gratitude for nature’s generosity.
Since its inception in 2019, the family-run distillery has been crafting spirits, garnering widespread recognition. With three of its spirits having earned accolades from esteemed institutions like the Great Taste Awards, Jade Garston and her adept team harbor lofty aspirations for their new triple-distilled vodka.
Distinguished by its unique distinction as the sole female-owned distillery inspired by the lunar cycle, the Wild Moon distillery employs Welsh water sourced from the Ffynnon Beuno Welsh mountains in the crafting of its new vodka. This choice harks back to the Celtic pagan origins that form the bedrock of the Welsh Witch Spirit collection. The meticulous production process involves passing the vodka through reiki-charged crystals—such as aquamarine, amethyst, and moonstone—to infuse it with energy, cleanse, and harmonise. Each bottle is meticulously sealed with a hand-crafted cork and adorned with wax, showcasing the brand’s signature apothecary-style packaging.
Jade Garston, a distinguished rarity as one of the UK’s few female distillers, shares, “The introduction of our new vodka is a momentous addition to our diverse collection. Its inception has been a labor of time and dedication, and we are elated to finally present it to the public. Our commitment to creating adored libations drives us, and each of our spirits bears a unique essence owing to our meticulous processes. Hand-crafted in limited batches at our North Wales distillery, we ensure that every aspect receives the utmost care and attention, and we remain unwavering in our principles.”
Jade’s enthusiasm continues, “The anticipation to unveil our new vodka and gauge our patrons’ reactions is palpable. I hold a special affinity for this vodka, and my favored concoction pairs it with a revitalising botanical cola. Soon, our vodka will grace the tables of local bars and pubs, standing alongside our esteemed gins and rums. The Wild Moon Distillery embarks on a thrilling chapter, and I am eagerly anticipating this exciting juncture.”
