Our Story
Pandora Distilling Co. is committed to making and distilling the best quality products.
Our founder grew up in and around the wine industry, and even lived on a working wine farm in France! Most importantly she loved how alcohol brought people together. The friendliness of the distiller, winemaker or brewer always made her excited to try something new and learn about what makes a great wine, beer or gin.
You could say her passion to produce good quality alcohol started young.
That is why Pandora Distilling Co. was founded. We want our products to be the ones you reach for when you want to have quality time with the people you value most!
Our spirits are made with that in mind; they are supposed to be easy drinking, and fuss-free, so you can enjoy what really matters.
The Story Behind Our Name
The Story Behind Our Name - Pandora Distilling Co. and no, it is not named after the jewellery brand or the planet from Avatar.
It has to do with this cutie right here!
The name behind Pandora Distilling Co. is quite special. It is named after my beloved Standard Poodle Pandora Bauduc. We adopted Panda Bear when I was 11 years old, look at baby Makena and Baby Bear. This was the day we brought her home.
Pandora, aptly nicknamed, Bear, Panda & Panda Bear has been my best friend ever since she first came to her furever home waaaayy back in 2010. She is the light of my life, and has brought me so much joy.
Since Bear, we have adopted 3 more poodles, two Toys Layla (La La) and Mckenzie (Kenzie or Mouse) and a red standard named Mr Bojangles (Bo or Jangles).
If you could not tell, these animals are my whole world, and are SPOILT rotten.
Panda Bear is getting old, she is 13 now and is a little bit wobbly and confused. She has given us quite a few scares over the last few years but she is still with us and we know she will be for a while longer.
So, to honour my Baby Girl and to ensure her legacy goes on when she does eventually cross the rainbow bridge, I named my company after her.
Pandora, my sweet beautiful girl xxx
Thank you for all your support so far! We cannot thank you enough!
Too many great things to come!
All our love,
Panda and Mak xx
