Cotswold Country Liqueurs was established November 2006 as a part time venture by Esther Chapman. Esthers Parents, Aunties and Grandparents had been making liqueurs from wild fruits for many years, so when she started making her own liqueurs, presenting them in beautiful bottles and giving them to friends 'the trend' for a bottle of liqueur for birthdays and Christmas took off. With the liqueurs selling out by Christmas 2006 Esther realised she had a potential winner on her hands, then in March 2007 she set about her venture full time when she was made redundant. She has continued to find growth from discerning palates in the Cotswolds and beyond ever since, see 'Where To Buy', infact, with only a few months experience behind her she was top 3 shortlisted in the 'Best Drinks Producer' catagory in the Cotswold Life Food and Drink Awards held at the Beaufort Polo Club summer 2007 and 2008.
Every variety of liqueur is hand made in small batches with care, unlike many mass produced liqueurs on the market.
Esther and her family pick seasonal fruit and flowers by hand from Gloucestershire pasture fields that are far away from the pollutants found near roads and some crop fields, this ensures the fruit is untainted and in its true natural state when blended and infused with the fairly traded sugar and spirit base.
With 9 regular varieties, and some seasonal specials to choose from we can offer a selection that would suit most palates.
