Heart of Suffolk Distillery Ltd | Suffolk

Gin Distillery in Bacton

The Heart of Suffolk Distillery was launched by husband and wife team Martyn and Karen Luke in February 2018, when a dream turned into reality. Both are local to the heart of Suffolk with Karen growing up just a half a mile from where the distillery has been established.

Karen and Martyn were joined by their son Ryan, in April 2022. He is now leading the way with the distillery and has his own ideas and exciting plans to push the distillery forward and continue the growth of the company.

Gin has been a passion of Karen’s for many years and more recently of Martyn’s and it was an easy decision when naming their signature product, to honour Betty, Karen’s mother, who shared the same love and enjoyment of a good quality gin.

The Bacton family lovingly pot distil small batches of a London Dry style gin with nine carefully chosen hand-crushed botanicals to create the modern, unique and refreshing taste.

The bijou distillery is based in Finbows Yard, Bacton, itself an independent Suffolk icon. It is open to the public and offers a relaxed and hospitable welcome for those wanting to enjoy a sample and purchase a bottle of hand-crafted gin. Alongside the gin on the shelves in the small retail unit, you will find other locally sourced products which will enhance the customer’s experience when they visit.

Betty’s Gin
