John Robert’s Botanic Request is moving into Sunny Bank Mills’s Twisting building, which is currently being renovated.
John Robert’s Botanic Request is moving into the mill’s historic Twisting building at Sunny Bank Mills. Picture: Jack WareingBen Peel, co-founder of John Robert’s Botanic Request with his partner Emelie Nilsson, said: “Once we had decided to relocate from nearby Stanningley, we viewed numerous sites but when we stepped into the Twisting, it instantly felt just right for our brand and concept for a distillery and cocktail bar.
“As a good bar is all about atmosphere, environment and hosting, it was hard not to ignore the beautiful panoramic views looking over the mill’s courtyard and grounds. "We also loved that it was tucked away at the back of the mill complex. It had a feeling that it could become Farsley’s best kept secret, somewhere you could meander away from the day-to-day and step into somewhere quite unique for an exceptional gin or a well-made cocktail.
The new premises will enable expanded production to supply increasing demand, including a new export deal to the United States.Mr Peel added: “We are very much looking forward to opening this new space where we can offer bespoke and unique gin and cocktail masterclasses in the distillery whilst testing bedding new spirits, cocktails and liquid innovations on the cocktail bar for the public.”
Part of a £1m regeneration of the three-storey Twisting will be completed shortly. This phase of the redevelopment is creating four creative and retail units, which are pre-let.
