Meet Simon Ford. CEO of Fords Gin. The Jedi Master of Juniper. The bartender’s bartender. Or for those who really think they know him, Mr. Fords Gin. No matter what you call him, he is as charming as he is successful and makes for the perfect cocktail muse.

Simon set out to make the quintessential gin and that is exactly what you find in Fords Gin. It’s juniper-forward with notes of citrus, sweet spices and florals, making it the perfect jack-of-all-trades gin needed in classic cocktails. What’s Simon’s recipe for success? It’s a 3:1 ratio of persistence to innovation, a dash of charm and always finished with a twist of humor.
