About our sustainability initiatives

Made locally in the Azores

Ghosts of The Ocean Gin is made in the Azores, overlooking the Atlantic Ocean and the creatures of the deep that we aim to protect

RECYCLED GLASS

We have changed our glass bottle and design to be even more sustainable. By using recycled glass (which is different to normal glass produced from scratch) we have created an even better product. We also encourage individual customers and bars to recycle the bottles once finished or return them to us for reuse, helping to reduce our carbon footprint even further

Created with sustainable botanicals

We are the first and only gin in the world to use seaweed in the base alcohol pre the distillation of our gin. This not only helps the gin to have a uniquely smooth taste, it is also uses one of the most sustainable ingredients in the world. We also source the majority of our botanicals from the Azores and Portugal

No unnecessary packaging

Our gins and spirit brands do not use any unnecessary plastic and we do not use any boxes or packaging with each bottle sold. This helps reduce unnecessary materials in the production and distribution process

Sustainable Gin Distillery

Leftover pineapples in production

Matching donations

We encourage our partners in bars and retail to match our donation to The Ocean Azores Foundation. We also work with our local partners on training to showcase the work of our products in the field of ocean conservation
