Symphonia Spirits’ sustainability success: energy consumption that uses only 2% of the energy required for traditional distilling.

We created a unique process using three techniques: cold distillation, hydrodistillation, and molecular analysis. These ground-breaking innovations ensure the rich, delicate, flavours of the botanicals are extracted with the maximum efficiency and preserve their taste quality. The carbon dioxide savings that could be realised by the gin industry would be the equivalent of planting over 1m trees every year.* 

Symphonia Spirits is the only distillery in the world using these combined procedures. It is how Symphonia has revolutionised spirit manufacture. 

*Calculated on figures provided by UK Govt BEIS 2021 Green Distilleries programme. 

Remaining true to the purity of science and nature is at the heart of Symphonia’s ethos.

Because unusually, its founder and distiller Ric is also an organic chemist. His life has been spent studying the structure, and properties of molecules – searching for the essence of life.

It is how he revolutionised spirits production. And how Symphonia wins its awards.

It means making spirits that reflect the glory of the Northern Irish countryside. Our commitment to the region is deep: embracing the ‘giant spirit’, we live, work and create in the Orchard of Ireland. It is a rural landscape of rustic natural beauty, rugged coastlines, rolling green hills – and the wildest botanicals and herbs.

With its unique micro-climate, balmy winds of the Atlantic Gulf Stream, peaty soil and nearness to Lough Neagh freshwater lake, it is beautiful land and is much treasured.

Symphonia’s ethos also means giving something back to the country. It inspires, it is home, it is energy and with cutting-edge science it is the reason for our success.
