Sustainability Commitment
Our decisions have direct impact on our surroundings
Shaking Up The Industry
Producing spirits can be resource-intensive, particularly where energy and water are concerned. That's why we at Cygnet are taking proactive steps to reduce the environmental impact of our gin, focusing on responsible practices at every stage.
At Cygnet, sustainability isn’t just a goal—it’s a promise we’re proud to uphold, through our use of eco-friendly, plastic-free glass bottles and packaging we're proud to shine a spotlight on our efforts.
The Decanters
Collaborating with award-winning designer Eric Villency, Cygnet is packaged in purposefully designed decanters that balance elegance with functionality. Taking inspiration from the magnificence of crystal decanters in design, the plastic free glass bottles significantly reduce the brand’s carbon footprint, as Cygnet actively encourages mindful consumption and repurpose.
"Eirlys" the award-winning, hand-constructed Cygnet 22 decanter weighs up to 50% less than the average spirits bottle, reducing raw materials and energy requirements to both produce & ship.
Both Cygnet Welsh Dry Gin and Cygnet 22 bottles are plastic-free. We use a 100% biodegradable seal made from wood pulp in Wales, thereby avoiding the use of paper and adhesive.
Designed to Repurpose
In addition to being plastic-free, recyclable and refillable, our award-winning decanters are designed with upcycling in mind, encouraging reuse as water carafes or vases, embodying our brand ethos of regeneration and sustainability.
The glass is screen printed using environmentally friendly wash-away organic ink, to ensure future reuse without barriers.
Our Ingredients
Through developing unique blends of the finest botanicals, combined with a meticulous distillation process with pure Welsh water, has resulted in an award-winning luxury gin celebrated for its exceptional smoothness.
Our botanicals are responsibly sourced and of the highest-quality.
Committed To The Future
We are conscious that this is only the beginning of our sustainability journey, but this is a commitment we take seriously.
"I’m pragmatic and recognize that these goals will take time but it’s important to me personally that we stay on that path until the end.”
- Katherine Jenkins OBE
