With its Hazy Dry and Hazy Strawberry Gins, Strangeways Beers and Spirits sets itself apart as the first fully compliant CBD-infused gin in the UK and they offer unique ways to tap into the calming benefits of CBD.
To play up its status as a Manchester-based business, Strangeways originally intended to create products that were only going to be served behind bars but it pivoted in response to the pandemic. Now, consumers across the UK can get a taste for Strangeways' unique offering by going to its website to make a purchase. As Strangeways founder Paul Hesketh says, "The gin revolution isn’t slowing anytime soon and for many customers having their gin cocktail infused with CBD is exciting and adds a little more spice to their night than a wedge of lemon or stuffed olive."
