It’s time to light your interest in the Claxton’s Core Range at this year’s Northern Restaurant & Bar, on 10-11 March at Manchester Central.

Some 12,100 visitors and 400+ exhibitors are expected at the North of England’s leading hospitality trade event.

Small batch. Big ideas

Claxton’s Spirits produce highly distinctive single-cask releases, setting their own gold standard in a fluctuating global market that can sometimes fold its arms to innovation.

In a UK drinks industry beleaguered by rising costs, shifting consumer habits, and economic uncertainty, Claxton’s philosophy is quality over volume-driven conveyor belt production, while remaining scalable enough to meet repeat trade demand.

The Claxton’s Core Range is now available in 26 countries.

Shelf confidence

Meticulous cask maturation includes wood management – the cradle of flavour in their Core Range. The aroma, texture and finish of a ruby port finish, for example, is a world away from a re-charred oak cask.

Each bottle’s self-confidence and label appeal stand out alone on the back bar, or as part of the wider collection, with expressions also adding clout to premium cocktail ranges.

That’s why Claxton Spirit has built a solid reputation in the on and off trades.

Bars and restaurants offering independent bottlings gain a point of difference, while for retailers, limited, repeatable small-batch expressions are commercial and collectable.

Says Adrian Hoose, Director: “The global market is under pressure, but we know that customers are looking for authenticity and crafted spirits.
Consumers and trade buyers want to hear the liquid’s story, taste a clear flavour identity, and enjoy unimpeachable quality.
We look forward to illuminating you at the Northern Restaurant & Bar Show, where you’ll experience Claxton’s Core Range firsthand!
Feel free to discuss our maturation philosophy with the team and discover how independent Scotch can elevate classic and contemporary serves.”
