Hin is a unique new hemp-infused gin spirit that is made without THC or CBD—just an infusion of hemp and botanicals like juniper, lemon peel and pink peppercorn.
While there are plenty of hemp-infused products that are now being introduced across various categories, Hin sets itself apart by drawing inspiration from a Celtic princess from 373BC. In her time, Princess Cambri Formosa used to teach the women in her clan to sew and weave with hemp to create everything from pieces of clothing to rope and sacks. Although hemp was an important commodity throughout the Tudor period, all cannabis was banned in the UK as of 1928. Now, thanks to changes in UK legislation, Hin is setting itself up to introduce "the return of the outlaw."
