Distillation and production

Distillation and production

Production method

They start from a neutral cereal spirit; the botanicals (including juniper) are macerated in the spirit for 24 hours before distillation in historic copper pot stills. After distillation, blending, dilution and bottling are carried out to achieve the desired ABV levels.

Distillation

Maceration of botanicals for 24 hours followed by distillation in copper pot stills, with subsequent blending and dilution.

Producer history Beefeater

The origins trace back to the Chelsea Distillery; James Burrough purchased the distillery in 1863 and, experimenting with various recipes, created the product that would become Beefeater. The brand is historically identified from the late 19th century (often cited as introduced in 1876). Production progressively moved and expanded to the current Kennington site. In 2005 the brand joined the Pernod Ricard group, which launched an investment and range relaunch program.

Production philosophy

Combines tradition and modernity: preserving the historic recipe and the connection to the spirit of London while innovating with premium and flavored variants. Emphasizes botanical quality and urban production as part of its identity.

Territory

London (Kennington) and the United Kingdom; the brand has international distribution and is part of the Pernod Ricard group.
