Blackeye Gin

Three rugby legends. One secret botanical. And £1.50 from every bottle going back into the game.

Blackeye Gin was born from a shared belief that sport and craft belong together. Created by Mike Tindall, James Haskell, and Alex Payne — three men who know a thing or two about what it takes to perform — it's a gin built with the same attention to detail they brought to the pitch.

Distilled at Thames Distillers in London, the botanicals are sourced from rugby-playing nations across the globe, giving the liquid a genuinely international character. The result is citrus-forward with subtle florals, and finished with a secret ingredient the makers say exists nowhere else in the world. We believe them.

For every bottle sold, £1.50 is donated to the Blackeye Rugby Fund — supporting research into player safety, risk management, and recovery for injured players. A gin worth raising a glass to, in every sense.
