FILBERT’S FINE FOODS
Established in 2010 by a trio of enthusiastic foodies, Filbert’s
Fine Foods was launched in a quest to create a new, interesting,
delicious and healthier range of gourmet snacks.
From our farm factory kitchen in the heart of Somerset we hand
craft multi award winning Mr Filbert’s snacks using only fresh,
natural ingredients to produce snacks that are gluten free, dairy
free and have no artificial flavours or additives, so you’re getting
only what nature intended.

E18TEEN GIN
Somerset gin maker Leigh Kearle founded E18hteen in 2016
and, after successfully launching his classic London dry gin, has
now expanded the distillery’s repertoire to include a range of
fascinating new flavours gin and more recently a range of rums
which are already collecting awards and being noticed.
Our E18hteen Gin is expertly crafted from sugar beat vodka
produced by master distillers. This enables us to give you the
very best yield and makes our artisan gin flavoursome, fragrant
and smooth. We are among a minority of distilleries that opt
to create their gin this way, meaning our gin delivers unrivalled
freshness, taste and the perfect finish to the palate.
We are proud to source local produce for the making of our
premium vodka, including sugar beet, for an outstandingly bold,
smooth and aromatic blend. After creating our distinct vodka, we
re-distil it. This enables us to give you the very best taste yield
that makes our artisan gin so flavoursome, fragrant and smooth.
