It's a very eggciting time for the egg industry! In January 2018, it was announced that egg sales had topped £6billion for the first time in 60 years, with more and more people opting for a healthy, filling breakfast and brunch food. This followed the news that raw, runny eggs are now considered safe for expecting mothers, young children and the elderly to eat. This growing, positive news creates great opportunities for local egg producers and sellers across the UK.

Mr Bottomley was a small scale whisky producer, beginning in West Yorkshire before moving on to Lincolnshire in the early 1980's. 
​ 
Alan Bottomley, his youngest son, was always fascinated by the production of spirit. In 2016, inspired by this inherited skill and the rise in the craft market, he decided to modernise those nearly lost techniques. With the agreement of partner Amy and their daughter Molly, Lincolnshire's oldest distillery was founded. Set in the quaint market town of Louth in the Lincolnshire Wolds, we now produce our award winning brand, Pin Gin, along with white label projects. Most excitingly, we have just started casking Mr Bottomleys' original recipe - the only Lincolnshire Single Malt Whisky.
