Brancaster Drinks Co

Norfolk coastal spirits inspired by Brancaster and the North Norfolk landscape

Brancaster Drinks is a Norfolk drinks company inspired by the coastline, marshes, hedgerows and landscape surrounding the North Norfolk village of Brancaster.

Founded by four partners with a shared connection to the area, Brancaster Drinks has created a range of award-winning gins and vodkas that draws much of its character from Norfolk and the coast.

The range includes Brancaster Gin, Brancaster Naval Gin, Brancaster Pink Gin and Brancaster Vodka, with ingredients including samphire, gorse, sea buckthorn, elderflower, Norfolk winter wheat and local honey appearing across the collection.

At The Norfolk Deli in Hunstanton, we stock Brancaster Drinks both in our shop and online, making it easy to discover these North Norfolk-inspired spirits whether you're visiting the coast or ordering from elsewhere in the UK.

Discover the story behind Brancaster Drinks

Discover the Brancaster Drinks range

Brancaster Gin

The original Brancaster Gin is a fresh and distinctive gin built around juniper alongside coastal and countryside botanicals including samphire, gorse, sea buckthorn and elderflower, with local honey contributing to its character.

Brancaster Naval Gin

A stronger expression from Brancaster Drinks, Naval Gin delivers a more powerful interpretation of the Brancaster style while retaining the coastal character associated with the range.

Brancaster Pink Gin

Brancaster Pink Gin brings a fruitier dimension to the collection, with pink elderflower and wild blackberries providing floral and berry notes inspired by the North Norfolk countryside.

Brancaster Vodka

Made using Norfolk winter wheat and local honey, Brancaster Vodka takes inspiration from traditional Polish vodka-making methods. Double-distilled and triple-filtered, it has also received recognition at the Global Vodka Masters.

 What makes Brancaster Drinks different? 

The landscape around Brancaster provides more than simply the name on the bottle.

Brancaster Gin takes inspiration from ingredients associated with the surrounding coast and countryside, including samphire, gorse, sea buckthorn and elderflower, together with local honey.

Brancaster Vodka takes a different approach, using Norfolk winter wheat and local honey and a traditional Polish-inspired production method. It is double-distilled and triple-filtered to create its smooth character.

Across the range, the connection with North Norfolk comes through ingredients, flavours and inspiration rather than simply putting a Norfolk place name on the label.
