About your guide
Born in Canada I moved to Switzerland (for love) over 40 years ago. I worked in the hospitality industry all my life, and when I turned 50 decided to do a Wine and Spirits course. Edelwhite Gin was the result, and since winning various awards, I have been able to make it my main source of income.
I have 2 children and 3 grandchildren. I live at 1100 meters at the foot of a ski hill in Entlebuch, about as Swiss looking as Switzerland is!
My maiden name is White- and that’s where the name comes from- Edelweiss the Swiss national flower – I changed the name to Edelwhite- like me, and a little bit Canadian–a little bit Swiss–a bit English and bit German.

“What an amazing well balanced flavours. I wasn’t a gin drinker but wow, this one has me hooked. It deserves a high end tonic to pair with or on its own. The packaging is lovely with all its detail and uniqueness. Hope to see it exported some day real soon! Love the botanicals.. Love this product and would highly recommend. Cheers!“
