Kenton Cool and the Adventurers Drinks Company team up to support the Gurkha Welfare Trust
In August 2025 I teamed up with world-leading climber Kenton Cool and launched Everest Gin, hand-crafted using herbs and spices found in the lower reaches of the Himalayas, and with every bottle containing a drop of melted snow, collected from the summit of Mount Everest by Kenton, during his record-breaking 19th successful ascent.
On launching the gin, based upon Kenton’s deep affection for the people of Nepal, we decided that a proportion of sales would be donated to the Gurkha Welfare Trust who support Gurkha veterans, their families, and their communities.
On 20th October 2025, following sales including 19 special edition signed bottles, we were delighted to donated £1,007.53 to the Gurkha Welfare Trust.
You can find out more about the trust and their work on their website at gwt.org.uk
