CEO at Two Drifters Distillery. Premium British rum made with a carbon negative footprint.
From launching with easyJet, receiving an overwhelming response after being featured on the BBC in March, securing reorders from Denmark, Italy, and Canada, expanding to Australia, and winning The Spirits Business Sustainability Award—the milestones just keep coming (and there’s even more that won’t fit in a LinkedIn post!). 🚀🌍 It’s moments like these that make me reflect on how far we’ve come with Two Drifters Distillery. Thanks to Gemma Wakeham for reminding me: it’s been five years since the molasses tank disaster. The night before BBC Saturday Kitchen came to film us, the tank exploded—covering everything in sticky chaos! After a full day of cleaning, I decided to “just tighten the seal” before heading home… BIG mistake. 🤦♂️ 😱 Every founder knows: those early days shape the journey ahead. Here’s to remembering where we started while looking forward to what’s next! 🙌
Love a molasses disaster! Reminds me of home alone when they guy walks up the stairs! We’ve all been there
Congrats Russ!
Congrats Russ!
Congrats!
I love how you haven’t even bothered to clean your face! The type of event that is funny in hindsight but definitely not at the time

3wooo the face says it all! Those moments make you stronger but when you're in deep it ain't much fun. But the list above makes it all worth it hopefully! Well done both of you, incredible accolades.
