There are so many fascinating chapters to Nicholso

There are so many fascinating chapters to Nicholson Gin’s 284 year history. Here’s just a little excerpt concerning the iconic Three Mills Distillery. Three Mills Island is an artificial construct on the River Lea based in Bow, East London. The island has been around since the Middle Ages at least, though there is some suggestion that the mills also feature in the Domesday Book, which dates it as far back as the 11th Century. Hands changed often; in the 1530s the mills ground flour, in the 1580s gunpowder. In the 16th and 17th Centuries the mills started producing neat spirit, eventually becoming a vast supplier (or rather, given the mood, an enabler), to the London Gin scene, even creating the neat spirit from which Nicholson Distillery made its gin. Over a century later, in 1872, the Nicholson family purchased the distillery from the Mure family, and William Nicholson Jr set to work modernising the mills, expanding both milling and distillation at the site over the years. Although it was primarily used for the production of grain alcohol (which supplied not only the Nicholson distillery in Clerkenwell, but competitors as well), Nicholson Lamplighter Gin was also made at the site. Spirit production at Three Mills was halted during the First World War while the government used the site to make acetone from grain. The distillery resumed its spirit production, but eventually closed for good when the site fell victim to another World War and was bombed during the London Blitz in October 1940. #threemills #ginhistory #historyofgin #londondistillery #gin #londondrygin #gincraze #distilleries #londonhistory #ginstagram #londonarchitecture #bowbybromley #domesdaybook
