NEW Gargowan No.35 Gin 70cl
A limited edition collaboration between the Isle of Cumbrae Distillery and Ayrshire Hospice
Gargowan marks the beginning of the Ayrshire Hospice’s story. Named after the historic villa at 35 Racecourse Road, which has been home to the Hospice since 1989, it symbolises a lasting commitment to providing care and support across Ayrshire and Arran. Crafted in partnership with Isle of Cumbrae Distillers, this gin celebrates the region’s rich heritage and community spirit at the heart of the Ayrshire Hospice.
Gargowan No. 35 is infused with rhubarb, raspberry, orange, and elderflower botanicals, creating a truly delicious gin. Elderflower, a powerful symbol in Celtic mythology representing the cycle of life and death, was chosen to reflect the Hospice’s role in supporting individuals and families through life’s most profound transitions with care, dignity, and compassion.

Isle of Cumbrae Distillers
The Isle of Cumbrae Distillers was established by five full and part-time “Millportonians” and made history as one of the few all-female distilling teams in Scotland, and the only international women’s team, drawing representation from the UK, Canada and the USA.
They create unique Scottish craft gins distilled with the highest quality botanicals, reflecting the landscape and flora of their island. Having won a number of international awards for their gins, including Gold at The Gin Masters and Bronze at the International Wine and Spirits Competition in their first year of trading, they have certainly put Millport firmly on the gin map in Scotland.
In 2024, after five incredible years, our local heroes - well, heroines - at the Isle of Cumbrae Distillery are passing the baton to a brand new leadership team! Caroline Christie and Struan Fraser from Kilwinning have now taken on full management of the distillery and will work alongside the original Fab Five of Bronwyn, Juli, Lynda, Philippa, and Jenine over the next 2-3 years to ensure a smooth transition.
