Farm-Grown Botanicals and the Craft of THREE BEES Gin
Every bottle of great gin begins long before distillation, starting with the botanicals grown on the farms that supply its distinctive ingredients. At THREE BEES Spirits, founder Tom believes that exceptional gin depends on the quality, freshness, and balance of those botanicals. This philosophy, rooted in authenticity and craftsmanship, has made THREE BEES one of the leading Market Harborough gin producers, known for sourcing the finest farm-grown botanicals to create smooth, character-rich gins.
Dedication to Quality and Authentic Craftsmanship
Tom’s dedication to quality is at the heart of everything the team does. Each gin is distilled in small batches, using a selection of hand-sourced botanicals from local and regional farms. By working closely with trusted growers, THREE BEES Spirits ensures that every ingredient, from juniper and coriander to citrus peel and honey, meets the highest standards. This focus on traceability, sustainability, and natural flavour defines their reputation as a genuine craft gin producer that values transparency and traditional distilling.

The Value of Farm-Grown Botanicals
For Tom, the essence of gin lies in the botanicals. Each ingredient contributes something unique to the spirit, and when they are farm-grown, the difference is unmistakable. Botanicals cultivated in nutrient-rich soil and harvested with care offer a purity and complexity that mass-produced alternatives simply cannot match.
Juniper berries, the defining element of gin, are selected for their aromatic intensity. Alongside them, citrus peel adds brightness, angelica root provides depth, and coriander seeds bring warmth and spice. Working with trusted farms allows THREE BEES Spirits to source these botanicals at their freshest, ensuring that every batch of THREE BEES Gin is layered with natural flavour and local character.
Farm-grown ingredients also reflect the rhythm of the British countryside. Seasonal variations in temperature, rainfall, and soil composition influence the taste of each botanical, giving the gin its subtle uniqueness from one batch to the next. This connection to the land is what makes the THREE BEES approach so distinctive, bridging the gap between agriculture and artistry.
At the THREE BEES Spirits distillery, tradition meets innovation. Each botanical is carefully weighed, prepared, and distilled in copper pot stills to capture its essential oils and aromatic balance. The distillation process is deliberately small-scale, allowing Tom and the team to maintain precise control over quality.
Honey, sourced from premium beekeepers in Market Harborough, adds another layer of complexity. Its gentle sweetness complements the botanicals without overpowering them, resulting in a gin that is smooth, refined, and unmistakably British. This signature touch has become one of the hallmarks of THREE BEES Gin, recognised by awards and loved by those who appreciate craftsmanship over commercial volume.
For gin enthusiasts seeking to support independent producers, THREE BEES Spirits represents the perfect balance of local sourcing and meticulous distilling. Their gins are produced with integrity, ensuring that every bottle reflects the care, time, and attention invested in its creation.

Sourcing farm-grown botanicals is not only about flavour; it is also about sustainability. By working with small farms and local suppliers, THREE BEES Spirits helps to support environmentally responsible growing practices and strengthen local economies. Each partnership is built on shared values of respect for nature and ethical production.
Tom is passionate about reducing waste and minimising environmental impact. The distillery uses recyclable materials wherever possible, and ingredients are selected based on their sustainability credentials. This forward-thinking approach aligns with modern consumers who are increasingly looking for premium spirits that reflect care for the planet as well as craftsmanship in the bottle.
