Penderyn Distillery, a company we have profiled for its line of Welsh whisky, is now extending their range into vodka and gin. Brecon Five vodka and Brecon Special Reserve gin are both are distilled with waters drawn from the Penderyn Distillery in the Brecon Beacons National Park in Wales, UK. The Brecon Five vodka is five column distilled for purity and smoothness and made with wheat grain and comes in a bottle meant to resemble a block of ice. The Brecon Special Reserve gin is infused with 10 specially selected botanicals, married with Penderyn barley spirit. Both sell for around $30.[via Brand Republic]

Great to see Penderyn doing a good job; I have a soft spot in my heart for Welsh distilling and quality packaging is tantamount to establishing a new brand.
Here's the comparision between the old and new bottles - http://www.johnnyrockandroll.com/b-log/welsh-brecon-gin-packaging-update/
Now if they would just bring back the old Prince of Wales recipe they'd have a serious heavy hitter on their hands.
