Our family-run distillery has launched Silver Knight, a new brand of vodka, bringing three flavours to the market: Original, Citrus, and Berry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We’re originally known for our gin, as owners Yasmin Gibson, and her father, Paul, decided to turn their gin-tasting hobby into a business.<\/p>\n\n\n

27-year-old Yasmin has been determined to see the growth of Dragon Slayer Distillery, whose name was inspired by medieval tales and folklore in the North East, however, we were were waiting for the right time to launch our new premium spirit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cEver since the launch of Dragon Slayer, I knew I wanted to diversify beyond just gin \u2013 my aspiration is for it to be a household name, and this is a step in the right direction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe gin market can be saturated at times, so I\u2019m excited to reach a new client base with our range of delicious vodkas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe definitely feel we\u2019ve had the advantage of learning a lot about the distilling process with our gin range, so it\u2019s been a lot of fun creating and experimenting with the new flavours and ingredients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOf course, we take as much pride in our vodkas as we do our gins, they\u2019re all small-batch distilled with premium locally-sourced ingredients \u2013 we don\u2019t skimp, quality is paramount!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yasmin runs the distillery with the help of her soon-to-be husband, Will Sandick, who is responsible for concocting the new products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He said: \u201cWell, they don\u2019t call me master distiller for no reason!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt\u2019s without a doubt my favourite part of the whole job, locking myself away in the warehouse and trialing and testing new flavours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI love it when we finally get the perfect balance of ingredients, and the whole family are able to try it together on a Friday evening \u2013 it\u2019s so rewarding, and I can\u2019t wait for the public to give all three options a try, too.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since launching three years ago, managing director Yasmin has received guidance from her father, who has experience in running successful companies including Gibson Motorsport and MPI Offshore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Paul Gibson said: \u201cI\u2019m very exited to see these products go to market, I take great pleasure in sampling them to make sure they\u2019re on the mark!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt\u2019s been incredible to watch Yasmin grow into a professional businesswoman who has really pushed Dragon Slayer forwards, and I have no doubt that she\u2019ll make sure it\u2019s a leading brand in the future.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n

The new Silver Knight vodka range will be live our website this Monday, and are available to purchase and sample at upcoming events and market stalls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
