Hide AdIt is being run by Kelly Gascoigne, daughter of Andy Gascoigne, HSB’s founder and ex- Yorkshire Rugby League star.
Kelly said: “I was at a promotional event for our gins in London and was approached by a Debenhams’ representative who loved our stall. She suggested we set up something similar in the White Rose centre - and here we are.
“This is a wonderful opportunity for us to showcase our very special gins, tonics and mixers. The footfall is pretty impressive – and the store will get busier and busier as Christmas
approaches”.
Awards for the gins and tonics, stimulated by the town’s global literary and creative heritage and inspired by the wild moors, have poured in.
