The Name Game!
“Puss puss, do you have any gin?”.
Puss & Mew, a gin company with such a strange name? Well, every rare thing has an interesting backstory and so do they.
So it all started when a person named captain Dudley Bradstreet devised the world’s first vending machine back in the 18th century. The system of the vending machine was such that it looked and acted like a cat that said “mew” and served drinks to all. This way the name came forward and today this gin-slinger brand takes pride in calling itself the Puss & Mew.
How it started!
There is always somebody behind a successful person or company and what’s behind the glorious success of Puss & Mew is Gin! The founders of this place were all into different fields when one day they sat together with a glass of gin and all they could do is think about recreating something unique with it. The idea grew into a plan and then into implementation. After mixing a handful of botanicals and herbs in several bottles, the makers found the perfect range of infused gins they always wanted and this is how it all began.
Gin, Gin, let’s begin!
Gin is a complete spirit in itself, gin needs no introduction and no explanation! At the same time this amazing spirit is the bartender’s best friend, mix it, blend it and pour it anywhere you want and it will rock the floor.
Puss & Mew, like any other company, were initially unsure about the sale of their newly crafted gins. But their dedication, passion and love for alcohol attracted gin enthusiasts from all around the world. The top reason why they are loved and preferred by all is the utter compassion they show while producing each bottle of that spirit. Moreover, Puss & Mew keeps organizing gin masterclasses, tasting sessions and cocktail mixing events to make people feel the essence and aroma of their unique flavoured gins.
