Everest Gin, crafted with a drop of melted snow from the summit of Everest.

I am proud to announce the launch of our latest drink, Everest Gin, with a story as remarkable as the mountain itself.

Inspired by world-renowned British climber Kenton Cool, Everest Gin is hand-crafted using herbs and spices found in the lower reaches of the Himalayas, but what truly sets Everest Gin apart is one awe-inspiring detail: every bottle contains a single drop of melted snow, collected from the summit of Mount Everest by Kenton Cool, during his record-breaking 19th successful ascent.

Kenton had contacted me asking if I had an Everest Gin after I tagged him in a social media post, and he was a little surprised when I said no but I could get an amazing one made if you bring me back some snow from the summit of Everest. The rest is history, with each bottle holding a little piece of the mountain.

You can watch Kenton collect the snow from the summit on my instagram.

For me this isn’t just about launching a gin, it’s about bottling a story that speaks to every adventurer, those who climb literal mountains and those who face their own.

Over the years Kenton has developed a deep affection for the people of Nepal, and Kenton and l have decided that a portion of profits from the sale of every bottle will be donated to The Gurkha Welfare Trust.

You can see Kenton Cool collecting the snow on our Facebook and Instagram pages @adventurersdks and our Everest Gin is now available online at the Adventurers Drinks Company and at Kentoncool.com
