Inspired by Nature: The FINDRA and Ben Lomond Gin Collaboration

Inspired by Nature: The FINDRA and Ben Lomond Gin Collaboration

As the founder of FINDRA, I've always believed that our connection to nature is profound and transformative. It's not just about enjoying the outdoors; it's about immersing ourselves in its beauty, drawing inspiration from its wonders, and weaving its essence into every thread of our creations. That's why when the opportunity arose to collaborate with Ben Lomond Gin, a brand that shares our passion for nature-inspired craftsmanship, I knew it was a partnership destined to flourish.

At the heart of our collaboration lies an adventurous spirit that fuels our desire to explore, discover, and revel in the majesty of the natural world. But what exactly does it mean to possess an adventurous spirit? For me, it's about embracing the unknown, seeking out new experiences, and finding joy in the journey. It's a mindset that thrives on curiosity, resilience, and a deep appreciation for the landscapes that surround us.

FINDRA and Ben Lomond Gin embody this adventurous spirit in distinct ways. FINDRA's outdoor clothing designs are not just functional; they're a testament to the beauty and diversity of nature. From the rugged terrain of the Scottish Highlands to the tranquil shores of our coastal landscapes, each garment is imbued with the spirit of exploration and adventure. It's about empowering individuals to step outside their comfort zones, embrace the elements, and forge their path in the great outdoors, no matter how long or far you go or for how long, the most important thing is to get outdoors and enjoy nature. 

Similarly, Ben Lomond Gin draws inspiration from the breath-taking beauty of its namesake mountain and the surrounding Scottish landscape. Crafted with botanicals hand-picked from the hillsides and glens, each bottle of gin is a tribute to the rich tapestry of flora that graces our countryside. From the vibrant hues of heather to the delicate fragrance of juniper, every sip is a sensory journey through Scotland's untamed wilderness.

But beyond our shared love for nature, FINDRA and Ben Lomond Gin are united by aligned brand values and ethos. Sustainability, craftsmanship, and a deep respect for the environment are at the core of everything we do. It's about more than just creating products; it's about fostering a sense of stewardship for the planet and inspiring others to do the same.

When the opportunity arose to collaborate with Ben Lomond Gin, it was clear that our shared values and ethos would form the foundation of our partnership. Together, we embarked on a journey to showcase the beauty of nature through our respective crafts – from FINDRA's stylish outdoor clothing to Ben Lomond Gin's artisanal spirits.

As part of our collaboration, I had the privilege of designing a unique Neck Warmer inspired by the vibrant colours of Ben Lomond Gin's botanical gins. Drawing from nature's palette, I sought to capture the essence of Scotland's wild landscapes – from the rich greens of the forests to the deep blues of the lochs.

The result is a versatile sustainably made accessory that not only keeps you warm on your outdoor adventures but also adds a splash of colour and style directly inspired by the beauty of our natural Scottish landscape .In partnering with Ben Lomond Gin, we've not only created something beautiful but also fostered a deeper connection to the landscapes that inspire us. It's a celebration of nature, craftsmanship, and the adventurous spirit that binds us together. As we raise a toast to our collaboration, let us be reminded of the infinite wonders that surround us and the joy that comes from exploring them. 

Cheers to FINDRA, Ben Lomond Gin, and the beauty of nature that inspires us all.
