The Deal with Black Friday

It’s that time of year again and our inboxes are full of deals and discounts. We’d love to share some bargains with you but, being a small, independent business, we simply don’t have the luxury of slashing our prices.

With rising costs, we’re all feeling the pinch, and it’s a constant battle to continue to deliver the highest quality, ethically made products you’ve come to know and love. You might think that the mark up on a bottle of gin is pretty high, but for small businesses like ours there's very little wiggle room. It's a wonder there was a gin boom to begin with!

How much does it cost to make a bottle of gin? Diagram of 58 and CO bottle of gin, broken into segments with the costs of ingredients, VAT, duty, shipping, packaging, wages and more.

So this Black Friday weekend (and throughout the festive season) we’d love for you to choose to spend your money supporting ethical, independent brands - whether it’s a bottle of gin, a gift voucher for one of our experiences or one of our fellow indie favs

Cheers,
Carmen & CO
