It's time to show a lil' respect
The spirits industry has long been dominated by men, but that’s changing as women increasingly take the lead in distilleries across the globe. From owning distilleries to crafting innovative blends, women are making their mark in the world of gin.
They’re not just participants; they’re driving change, making it possible for others to follow in their footsteps. Among these trailblazing women is Marianne Fernandes, our female founder.
With years of experience in the startup industry, Marianne knew she had the passion and drive to create a gin that stood out in a crowded market. She researched distilleries in both the US and UK, seeking the perfect blend of tradition and innovation to craft a spirit that captured the essence of her journey—from her London roots to the vibrant energy of New York City.
At Prototype Gin, Marianne is committed to diversity and inclusion, believing that these values are the foundation of success. The team reflects a wide range of backgrounds, and this diversity fosters a culture of creativity and fresh perspectives, allowing the brand to continuously innovate while honoring the traditions of gin-making.
Women like Marianne are breaking barriers every day, taking on key roles in the industry, from creating unique gin blends to running day-to-day operations. More women are stepping up as master distillers, with some even building their own distilleries. Their work is not just about breaking the mold; it’s about crafting products that cater to an insatiable demand for both tradition and new taste experiences.
Whether it’s blending recipes passed down through generations or creating entirely new flavor profiles, women in the gin industry are making their voices heard.
This shift is more than a trend—it’s a movement. As more women step into leadership roles, they are reshaping the industry, challenging long-standing gender norms, and paving the way for future generations of female distillers. And just like Marianne, many are using their creativity, hard work, and dedication to build businesses that reflect their unique vision.
The world of gin is no longer just a man's world. Women are leading the charge, and with each new gin, they are proving that their influence will continue to grow.
