A free-spirited revolution in premium drinks
Award-winning, gluten-free and non-GMO, Gypsy Spirits UK is shaking up the drinks scene with its clean, premium vodka, gin and ready-to-drink cocktails that capture the essence of adventure and freedom.
We caught up with Kelly Walker, CEO of Gypsy Spirits UK, to find out more about the story behind this fast-growing brand and why it’s become her personal passion project.
“We first discovered Gypsy on our honeymoon in the States,” Kelly tells us. “We were invited to the home of one of the brand’s investors and I was feeling a little worse for wear from
the night before. He handed me a Gypsy can and said, ‘Not only will this cure your hangover, but the second one will make you feel like Beyoncé.’ He wasn’t wrong!”
It wasn’t just the (alleged) hangover magic that won Kelly over. What stood out was the purity of the product: Gypsy vodka is distilled seven times (compared to the industry standard of five times), making it exceptionally clean. It’s also gluten-free, keto-friendly, and contains zero carbs, ideal for modern health-conscious drinkers. But it’s the heart behind the brand that really struck a chord.
“The name ‘Gypsy’ was inspired by a close friend of the founders who passed away young. She was known for her wild, free-spirited nature, and they wanted to create a drink that embodied her energy and legacy,” says Kelly. “They went through 52 formulations before they landed on this one. It’s a true labour of love.”
Already a hit across several US states, Gypsy has picked up multiple awards and a loyal following. Now, as the sole UK supplier, Kelly and her team are excited to introduce this American favourite to British shores. Whether you prefer a smooth pour of vodka or gin, or you’re after something ready to go, Gypsy’s canned cocktails are made for fun on the move, perfect for beach days, picnics and festivals.
Each can packs a punch at 8% ABV and comes in bold, summery flavours, Vodka & Raspberry Lemonade Iced Tea, Vodka & Wild Pomegranate and Vodka & Ginger Beer with Lime. So, if you’re looking for a spirit with soul and zero compromise on taste or quality, Gypsy might just be your new go-to. Look out for local Brighton stockists.
