Ecclesiastical Insurance joined a long line of distinguished supporters when it insured Plymouth Gin's owners Coates & Co.

The 200-year-old gin was the favourite tipple of Franklin D Roosevelt, Winston Churchill, Ian Fleming and Alfred Hitchcock.

Plymouth Gin has been the official gin of the Royal Navy since the 1800s.

The policy, placed by intermediary GMM Insurance in Newton Abbot, covers the distillery property, business interruption and liability.

The 2025 Insurance Times Awards took place on the evening of Wednesday 3rd December in the iconic Great Room of London’s Grosvenor House.

Many congratulations to all the worthy winners and as always, huge thanks to our sponsors for their support and our judges for their expertise.
