Jindea Single Estate Tea Gin is a collaboration between three industry professionals whose collective CV encompasses all facets of the drinks business from bartender and bar operator to spirits merchant and brand ambassador. Two of the collective, Matthew Dakers and Adrian Gomes, have strong ties to India, Matthew’s great-grandfather serving as a Captain in the Indian Army, and Adrian’s father growing up in Goa, where the family worked the Indian railways, including the renowned narrow-gauge ‘toy trains’ that continue to serve the hill stations. Jack Rackham, who completes the collective, works at Emporia Brands, a drinks importer and spirit merchant business that has been in the family for three generations.
