Bont Gin

The name ‘Bont’, meaning ‘bridge’ in Welsh, is derived from the gin’s locales of Bridgend (Pen-Y-Bont) and Cowbridge (Y Bont Faen).

Bont’s tie to Bridgend begins with a family connection to Bridgend Creamery, and was one of the main sources of inspiration for the packaging design. The milky-white ceramic bottle, blue print and cow are a tribute to the creamery and the adverts and posters used throughout its existence.

Bont’s other geographical tie, Cowbridge, is where you can find the Bont Gin bar. The cow, and juniper bridge it sits below, work together as a visual cue for ‘Cowbridge’.
