Where are your spirits from?
Our spirits are created in the UK by independent brands using innovative ingredients, botanicals and distilling techniques to produce premium spirits.
We partner with purpose-driven brands committed to reducing environmental impact — including zero-waste distilleries, renewable energy users, family-owned producers, locally sourced ingredient suppliers, B Corp members and 1% for the Planet contributors.
All brands use our alumini® miniature bottle to help reduce packaging impact. Bottling and filling takes place at facilities across the UK.
Where are the alumini® bottles made
Our alumini® bottles are produced by our European manufacturing partner, with each batch fully traceable back to its European 100% post-consumer recycled aluminium origins.
They're maden a factory powered entirely by renewable energy, then imported into the UK for filling by our British brand partners.
What is 100% post-consumer recycled aluminium
It’s aluminium recycled from used consumer products that have reached the end of their lifecycle.
Reusing existing aluminium reduces the need for virgin raw material extraction, supports a circular economy and significantly lowers carbon emissions. Independent Carbon Cloud data (Feb 2026) states, recycled aluminium generates just 0.32kg CO2e/kg during production of the ingot (the block of material from which the slug and then bottle is made).
This compares to 5.63kg CO2e/kg for virgin aluminium and around 1.25 CO2e/kg for glass.
Why use 100% post-consumer recycled aluminium?
Recycled aluminium requires far less energy to produce than virgin aluminium and generates around 95% lower CO2 emissions.
Unlike plastic, aluminium can be recycled repeatedly without losing quality. It’s also lightweight, durable and efficient to transport, reducing emissions across the supply chain.
Virgin aluminium production is highly energy intensive and creates significant environmental damage and toxic waste, making 100% post-consumer recycled aluminium the lowest-impact material choice available for miniature bottles today.
Is the alumini® bottle recyclable?
Yes — the bottle is fully recyclable through household recycling.
Aluminium is one of the world’s most widely recycled materials, with UK aluminium beverage recycling rates reaching 81% in 2023. Please recycle your bottle.
Is the alumini® bottle reusable?
The bottles can be reused creatively for display or other non-liquid uses as they look too good just to recycled them,.
However, we do not recommend refilling them with liquids, as the caps require machine fitting to remain watertight and may leak if reapplied manually.
Is the alumini® bottle plastic free?
No. Less than 1% of the bottle consists of a BPA-free, food-safe internal coating that prevents corrosion and protects against any migration into the liquid.
The coating is microscopically thin and does not affect recyclability, as it burns away during the aluminium recycling process.
These coatings are nothing new, having been used in canned fizzy drinks, beer and foods for many decades (e.g. by coca-cola since the 1960's)
Is the gift packaging plastic free?
Yes. Our gift packaging uses FSC-certified cardboard and is fully recyclable through household recycling streams.
