The opera singer has embarked on a completely new business venture and is the first female founder of a famous gin, made just six miles from the same street where she grew up.
To celebrate the spirit’s release, Katherine hosted a party at the Rosewood Hotel in London.
The two spirits, Cygnet Welsh Dry Gin and Cygnet 22 Gin, sell between £35 and £47.50, with Katherine’s husband Andrew on board and Eric Villency, who designed products such as Peloton and Rock Star Energy drinks .
Of her new business, Katherine said: ‘Cygnet combines the best local botanicals with pure Welsh water and, being surrounded by nature and the beauty of the valleys, there is plenty of ‘Hwyl!’ (an ecstatic feeling of inspiration unique to Wales).
It comes after Katherine also celebrated the big day last night with her husband Andrew Levitas and their friends from London.
The couple were joined by other Welsh stars including The One Show’s Alex Jones.
Sharing some photos on Instagram, she captioned, “It’s so important to me to always honor where I come from.”
‘I’ve also included my ‘secret ingredient’ in Cygnet 22, Manuka Honey, which I use to care for my voice.
He added: “All this results in an ultra-premium gin that is so smooth you can sip it straight.”
As founder, Katherine added that she is passionate about speaking from woman to woman.
Tired of male-driven spirits, she wanted to break the mold and create a ‘Best in Glass’ gin for the brotherhood of gin lovers.
