Sue Barker hails 'iconic creation' as Wimbledon-themed gin launched
Jannik Sinner, Carlos Alcaraz, and Alexander Zverev will be battling for the Wimbledon title, but they won't be the only big servers in town. In celebration of five years as the Official Gin Partner of The Championships, Sipsmith has unveiled its most iconic creation yet: Top Seed Gin – a limited-edition spirit distilled with real Wimbledon Centre Court grass seeds. Crafted as a 'spirit for champions,' Top Seed Gin pays homage to the pursuit of tennis excellence and Sipsmith's commitment to craftsmanship. This first-of-its-kind gin incorporates authentic grass seeds from Wimbledon's meticulously maintained Centre Court as one of its botanicals, blended through the same process used in the brand's renowned London Dry Gin. The gin has been distilled precisely to 41.03% ABV, as a nod to Centre Court turning 103 this year. The gin was officially unveiled at an exclusive event hosted by tennis legend and former Top Seed, Sue Barker CBE, celebrating the unique blend of sporting heritage and innovative distilling. Sue Barker said: 'Top Seed Gin perfectly captures the essence of Wimbledon: a celebration of tradition, excellence, and innovation. It's a winning blend that celebrates skill and craftsmanship, both in tennis and in distilling.' Sipsmith co-founder Sam Galsworthy said: 'It's an honour to launch this creation alongside the legendary Sue Barker. Our partnership with Wimbledon has always been rooted in shared values of excellence, heritage, and dedication to craft. With Top Seed Gin, we've bottled the spirit of Centre Court – quite literally.' To complement its fresh and distinctive character, Sipsmith recommends enjoying Top Seed in its signature serve; a refreshing cocktail mixed with cloudy apple juice, elderflower cordial, Supasawa or lime juice, and a splash of soda, making it the perfect toast to a summer of tennis. This exclusive gin will be available as a secret serve at Wimbledon's Pergola Bar during The Championships. Fans in the know can order The Top Seed cocktail off-menu and will also receive a bag of Wimbledon grass seeds, enabling them to grow their own botanicals at home. For those unable to attend in person, the gin is exclusively available to members of Sipsmith's exclusive Sipping Society, which can be joined via the website or by visiting their Chiswick distillery:
