"From patrolling the streets of Sangin to crawling into Insurgent underground tunnel networks in the mountains of Afghanistan".

East Chase Distillers co-founder Richie will take guests through a raw and personal account of his life within UK Special Forces on Saturday (October 14) - over a glass or two of Heritage Gin.

From his early days in the Royal Marines; to embarking, at the age of 22, on the ruthless selection process required in joining Special Forces; losing friends in both training and combat; conducting night-raids within the Insurgent Mountain strongholds of Afghanistan.
