The North Yorkshire Gin.

Inspired by the rugged yet beautiful North Yorkshire moors. Did you know, the Hole of Horcum is amongst the most southerly place in Britain where you can see the rare dwarf cornel, an arctic-alpine plant usually found in much colder conditions. Botanists tend to find these plants by looking between Heather & Bilberry two of our botanicals used in this earthy spirit.

The East Yorkshire Gin.

Inspired by the breath-taking Yorkshire coastline, our East Yorkshire gin combines hints of the sea (kelp) with botanicals influenced by the meandering journey to the coast through the rolling Yorkshire Wolds. We introduce honey, dandelion, lavender, berries, and Hawthorne blossom into the distillation. Dom was inspired by David Hockney's The Big Hawthorne when developing the flavours of this floral Gin.

The South Yorkshire Gin.

Dom was once a Butcher, this Influenced the development of our crisp and fresh South Yorkshire gin. We use the depth of flavour found in the famous Barnsley chop to cultivate the earthiness of mountain ash with the sweetness of liquorice and cassia bark. An added hint of mint and rosemary combine to create a beautifully fresh, crisp, ‘herby’ gin.

The West Yorkshire Gin.

Drawing inspiration from the diverse city of Bradford, the hometown of our founder & distiller Dom. Our spiced, aromatic gin contains a fine blend of flavours which include cardamom, turmeric, cumin, cubeb and grains of paradise. For us it's pure curry in a glass.

What Our Customers Say About Us...

"Really excellent 'tour' (there's only the one room - that's all they need!) of the distillery process. Tom was an excellent host. The value for money is superb, and I know ALOT more than I did about what goes into making a good gin! Highly recommend."

Richard Taylor - June 2026
"Thank you to the Hooting Owl Distillery for hosting our Azets connector event in April 2026. The room layout worked well, offering many different areas for mixing and mingling. Our guests loved the unique venue and the central location and distance from the train station was perfect. Lauren and her team looked after us brilliantly."
