Sea Arch

The brand takes its name from a natural sea arch off the Torquay coast, and Sea Arch draws its inspiration from the Devon coastline. The founders began experimenting with flavours on their kitchen table before launching the brand; Geoff Yates is a professional pastry chef. Sea Arch produces its spirits using traditional distillation techniques, with the alcohol then gently removed. The range is built on all-natural botanicals, including sea kelp and blood orange.

In addition to its botanical spirits, Sea Arch makes ready-to-drink canned cocktails, which debuted in November 2020. The brand recorded sales growth of over 200% in 2020/21.

Sustainability informs the brand's packaging choices. Cardboard boxes are made from recycled materials, bottles carry solvent-free paint, no single-use plastic is used, and all packaging is either recyclable or compostable. Sea Arch is also a partner of The Seahorse Trust.

From its Devon base, the brand distributes across the UK and exports to the United Arab Emirates, Australia (its second international market) and parts of Europe. Sea Arch is positioned for the Dry January audience, and one of its drinks has won awards.
