Our story
It has long been said that when God was handing out chins, Gilli thought he had said ‘Gins’ and asked for a double!
New brands and botanicals, infusions of flavour, and gins from around the world inspired her son Lee Cowell to create the beautiful Gilli’s Gin Tin we have today! After three years of exciting festivals, weddings and an appearance on ITV’s This Morning, Lee made the hard decision that his wedding and events company was taking up the majority of his time, whilst Gilli deserved to be out every weekend at every festival serving amazing gins up and down the land.
Up stepped the duo of Emma Walker and Danny Drewery in January 2020 and became the proud new owners of Gilli’s. Upon Emma’s completion of her QCF Level 3 Patisserie Diploma, we launched our ‘in-tin’ bakery – MoodyMare Patisserie – as a home delivery service to run alongside Gilli’s. Look out for us at Food Festivals and events all around Yorkshire and the north of England for plenty of gin-themed treats!
We hope you enjoy Gilli’s Gin Tin as much as we have bringing it to you.

Trick or Treat with a Twist – Halloween 2020
Who loves Autumn? Warm drinks, snuggly oversized jumpers that hide all the cakes we’ve been eating and scarfs, many women will relate to the scarf obsession. Personally, I am a Summer girl, but I do have a soft spot for Autumn, and more recently, Halloween. Growing...
