How Maven Spirits can help

A useful formulation brief considers more than a botanical list. It connects the desired sensory character with raw material sourcing, trials, processing choices and repeatable production. Maven Spirits helps clients explore a direction, assess it through practical development work and consider how it can be scaled on the intended equipment or with a production partner.

Support is provided by Dr Jack Mayo, Consultant Master Distiller & Distillery Operations, based in Edinburgh, Scotland, with global mobility. The scope is agreed around your project, existing equipment and team.

Let’s talk about your project.
