Ellers Farm Distillery secures listing in Bradford-headquartered supermarket giant Morrisons

The listing is part of the Bradford-headquartered supermarket’s Nation’s Local Foodmaker programme to bring more local food and drink produce to its customers.

Ellers Farm Distillery, near York, launched its Dutch Barn Orchard Vodka in 2022. It is hand-crafted from British apples and tasted every 20 minutes during the distillation process.

The brand is also committed to making planet-friendly choices in every step of the creation of its liquid.

In addition to measuring and offsetting carbon emissions by working with ClimatePartner, the team have also planted 2.5 acres of apple trees at the distillery to remove carbon from the atmosphere as they grow and create a biodiverse habitat. Dutch Barn Orchard’s brown glass bottles were chosen because they use a higher percentage of recycled glass and are made in Yorkshire.

Joining the hero product’s listing is Ellers Farm Distillery’s Small Batch Spirits range. The range is distilled in limited runs of 500 bottles and includes Cherry Liqueur, Espresso Vodka, Elderflower and Elderberry Liqueur, and Y-Gin.

Steve Hickey, sales and marketing director at Ellers Farm Distillery, said: “We’re proud to have been selected by Morrisons as part of its Nation’s Local Foodmaker programme – our Yorkshire heritage is something that we draw upon a lot in the distillation of our products, and with Morrisons being headquartered in Yorkshire, this is a partnership that’s close to our heart.”
