Our Story
The Gin Co was established in 2012 by your friends at The Standeaven Brewery. It started with a vision, Gin & Tonic on Tap. Seeking quality products to fill up our kegs, we set out on an adventure to create our own hand crafted gin. The Gin Co was born!
Join us on our journey, as we continue to evolve and experiment with new botanicals, inspired by seasonal ingredients sourced from local markets. Imparting the true characteristics of these ingredients and championing them is our aim.
Masters of our craft – bespoke gin is our passion.
The Team Behind Our Success
Keith Standeaven
(Owner)
A man of many talents and the mastermind behind the scenes. Can be found scheming up new ideas on the farm, in his office, behind the taps at an event or anywhere really! He is the go to man for anything and everything. Some say he’s the original Gypsy King.
Christine Standeaven
(Owner)
The queen bee, who’s vision and insight have proved invaluable to create and grow many businesses, not only this one. Everything she touches turns to gold. Basically she runs the show, even without realising it.
Shaun Standeaven
(Owner Brewmaster)
With an impeccable palate that is the source of the finesse you taste in all products he produces. Nothing leaves the farm without his approval.
Donneè Standeaven
(Owner)
The ‘Jill of all Trades’ in the past she’s been found helping behind taps, doing tastings, and filling the gaps when needed. Formerly in corporate she has recently joined the family business full-time.
