Our

STORY

As an ardent gin enthusiast, I once set myself a challenge a few years ago. I wanted to determine whether I had the ability to create my own gin. Ph. Collet's Gin is the delightful outcome of acquiring expertise, skills, and a fervent dedication to experimenting with various herbs and spices. Continuously, I've been on the lookout for new botanicals, with pure nature serving as my primary source of inspiration. Ph. Collet's Gin is crafted from a distillation of natural resources from around the world, combined with exclusive botanicals found in the Flemish woods. The character of Ph. Collet's Gin is fashioned from 11 botanicals, featuring subtle notes of rosemary and citrus.


Sharing this story would not have been possible without the support of friends, family, and those who believed in this project. Their positive reactions encouraged me to introduce Ph. Collet's Gin to the market at the beginning of 2014. This has been a successful journey so far, and I am eager to share it with fellow gin enthusiasts.


We are deeply grateful to have been the signature drink of the Michelin-star restaurant d'Essensi in our hometown, 's Gravenwezel, for many years now. While our primary distribution is local, we also ship our bottles to passionate enthusiasts around the world. If you ever find yourself in Singapore, don't forget to order a Ph. Collet's Gin at Atlas Bar, the world's largest gin and tonic bar.
