Cornwall has a long history of distilling, dating back to the 18th century, and the county is home to a number of distilleries that produce a range of artisanal spirits, including gin. Cornish gin has gained popularity with several artisanal distilleries producing their own unique blends. Many of these distilleries use locally sourced ingredients such as juniper and coriander as well as other local ingredients that reflect the unique terroir of the unique region.
