Brewer Lee Chisnall has made a charity branded Willow Wood Hospice gin in Tameside\u2019s first distillery.<\/p>\n

The Denton man worked in IT for 26 years until he sought a new career away from the desk job.<\/p>\n

He now works full-time as the owner and operator of Tameside\u2019s first distillery, The Tameside Distillery in Denton.<\/p>\n

The father of two outlines his goals as being: \u201cTo make it something sustainable for the next 25 years.”<\/p>\n

Two years ago, Lee decided to start researching how to make a career making high quality alcohol for those who seek authentic flavours like himself.<\/p>\n

In July, he secured a unit on Tameside business Ppark and with two boilers and a gin basket started producing Tameside Gin<\/a>.<\/p>\n

He said: \u201cIt\u2019s all trial and error. There isn\u2019t a science that tells you how many of each [ingredient] you need.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s no formula, there isn\u2019t anything. It is just trial and error. I spent about a year-and-a-half developing a recipe.<\/p>\n

\u201cKnowing what I know now, I could probably develop another recipe in two or three months.\u201d<\/p>\n

Lee started off with a good London Dry gin  before he begins branching out into other flavours such as raspberry, which Lee hopes to do in the new year.<\/p>\n

With the gin made, Lee went to see potential sellers to give them a free bottle to try with a business proposal if they enjoyed it.<\/p>\n

He now has nine stockists for Tameside gin, including two mobile gin.<\/p>\n

This success allowed him to begin work creating \u2018The Willow Wood Gin\u2019 in support of Willow Wood Hospice in Ashton-under-Lyne, which he launched this month.<\/p>\n

Lee, whose mum works in the hospice office, said: \u201cThe hospice needs about \u00a33 million a year. They\u2019ve got to raise through donations and the lottery, selling stuff in the shop.\u201d<\/p>\n

In an average week, Lee produces 1,000 bottles of gin at his distillery and does everyting himself to brewing the gin to rinsing bottles, labelling and packing.<\/p>\n

In the new year, Lee hopes to start recruiting more staff to help with the operation. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
