Penhros Gin is on the lookout for a chief gin taster to join their team and help shape future flavors in a fun, remote position
Kington: Penhros Spirits is on a mission to find a chief gin taster, and they’re calling it one of the most exciting job opportunities in the UK for 2025. How cool is that?
This remote gig means you’ll get to try unreleased gins and help create new flavors. Sounds like a dream job for gin lovers!
Harriet Evans, one of the co-founders, mentioned they’re after a “Ginfluencer” with a great palate and a love for craft gin. It’s not just about tasting; you’ll be shaping the future of their gin lineup.
No fancy qualifications are needed, just a passion for spirits and a knack for picking out flavors. Plus, you’ll get a case of gin each year and be the first to try new varieties.
Penhros has been making waves in the craft gin scene, with their products available in over 400 Sainsbury’s stores. They use “imperfectly perfect” fruit from their family farm, which is a great way to reduce waste.
And get this: their gin comes in 100% recycled aluminum bottles, cutting down their carbon footprint by a whopping 91%. Talk about being eco-friendly!
Harriet added that being a gin taster is about more than just sipping gin; it’s about influencing the future of their craft spirits. They want people who can pick up on subtle flavors and aren’t shy about giving honest feedback.
If you’re 25 or older and think you’ve got what it takes, you can apply before February 16. Who knows, you might just land the best job ever!
In 2023, Penhros even won the Product of the Year award from the Gin Guide, impressing judges with their taste and branding. They’re definitely a brand to watch!
