Anno – The Story Continues By Jon & Jodie, Canterbury Brewers & Distillers

If you've enjoyed Anno before, welcome back.

If you're discovering us for the first time, we're delighted you've found us.

We're Jon and Jodie, owners of Canterbury Brewers & Distillers, and we're incredibly proud to be continuing the story of Anno.

As a fellow Kent producer, Anno was always a brand we admired. It represented so much of what we believe in: craftsmanship, creativity, quality and a genuine connection to the county we call home. It was a brand with character, built around exceptional spirits and inspired by Kent.

When the opportunity arose to become the custodians of Anno, we knew it was something worth preserving.

Today, Anno has a new home in the heart of Canterbury.

From our historic Victorian Foundry, we brew award-winning beers, distil premium spirits and welcome thousands of visitors every year to our brewery, distillery and brewpub. Bringing Anno into our family wasn't about changing what made it special; it was about ensuring its story could continue.

Our commitment is simple.

We'll respect the heritage of Anno while investing in its future. We'll continue crafting spirits that deserve the Anno name, while exploring everything that makes Kent such an extraordinary place to create drinks.

Kent has always been known as the Garden of England. From orchards full of cherries and apples to hop gardens, vineyards, hedgerow botanicals and coastline, it's a county rich in flavour and inspiration. Over time, we hope Anno will become a collection that celebrates the very best of Kent, with spirits inspired by the landscapes, ingredients and stories that make our county unique.

Whether you're returning for an old favourite or discovering the range for the first time, we hope you'll enjoy being part of that journey.

Over the coming months, we'll be sharing more from behind the scenes, introducing new cocktails, telling the stories behind our spirits and giving you a glimpse into the ideas we're exploring for the future.

Thank you for your support, whether you've been with Anno from the beginning or have only just joined us.

We're proud to continue the story of this remarkable Kent brand, and we can't wait to share what comes next.

We hope you'll join us.
