GWT Ambassador Kenton Cool Launches Everest Gin in support of GWT
GWT Ambassador Kenton Cool is one of the world’s most accomplished and high-profile British mountaineers and an elite mountain guide. He holds the world record of the most summits of Mount Everest by a non-Nepali climber, having reached the peak an incredible 19 times.
His achievements are even more inspiring as he was told he would never walk unaided again after a severe climbing fall in 1996 shattered both of his heel bones.
Kenton regards Nepal as his second home and is deeply committed to the work The Gurkha Welfare Trust does to enable Gurkha veterans to live in dignity.
This year, Kenton has found a new way to support the charity he holds so close to his heart, with a new and exciting beverage.
“Everest Gin is hand-crafted with botanicals found in the Himalayan foothills. It captures the untamed purity of the world’s greatest mountain with every bottle containing a drop of melted snow collected from the summit of Everest by British mountaineer Kenton Cool, binding the soul of the mountain to the spirit in your glass.”
Kenton has kindly pledged a portion of profits from the sale of every bottle of Everest Gin to be donated to The Gurkha Welfare Trust.
