Posh Highclere Castle Gin, Launched By CT Company & The Real 'Downton Abbey,' Makes US Debut
How does a Connecticut-based spirits company partner with the real-life Earl and Countess of TV’s "Downton Abbey," Highclere Castle? They connect through email of course. It was after watching an episode of "Downton Abbey," followed by a documentary about Highclere Castle, that Adam von Gootkin got an idea. Von Gootkin was already successful in the spirits business, having launched New England’s first legal moonshine since Prohibition, Onyx Moonshine, in 2011 along with Peter Kowalczyk. Why not a premium gin? Thus, an email was sent and the conversation started. Follow-up calls turned in…
