Hensol Castle Distillery launches commemorative 1899 vodka

Hensol Castle Distillery's 125 vodka launches in February 2025.
Hensol Castle Distillery celebrates Cardiff City FC’s 125th anniversary season with the release of their 1899 vodka, in collaboration with the Bluebirds.

Nestled in the heart of the Vale of Glamorgan, Hensol Castle Distillery is an award-winning distillery, whose range of products combine centuries of history with modern craftsmanship. The distillery’s own range of spirits include an acclaimed variety of craft-made gins, rums and - more recently - vodka.

1899 is hand crafted by their team of expert Welsh distillers in small batches, being distilled five times in the process. A column distilled British potato vodka, expertly blended with a dash of Hensol Castle unaged Single Malt Spirit & the purest Welsh water.

Cardiff City’s Head of Commercial, Huw Warren, said: “We’re delighted to have collaborated with Hensol Castle Distillery on the launch of 1899 vodka. We’re excited to share their latest product with our supporters, as we jointly celebrate the Club’s 125th anniversary season.”

Dai Wakely, Master Distiller at www.hensolcastledistillery.co.uk, added:

“We’re incredibly proud to partner with Cardiff City FC on this special edition 1899 vodka. As a distillery rooted in Welsh heritage, it’s an honour to mark the Club’s 125th anniversary with a spirit that is a fitting tribute to such a historic milestone for the Bluebirds and their supporters, and we can’t wait for Cardiff City fans to raise a glass and toast to 125 years of their beloved club.”
