Fentimans Mandarin and Seville Orange Jigger

The history of the brand producing quality beverages is honourable: the founder of the company Thomas Fentiman was an iron puddler from Cleckheaton, England who was approached by a local merchant with a request for a loan in 1905. A deal was made and the security was a recipe of a botanically brewed ginger beer. The merchant did not pay the loan back and so, Thomas became the owner of a unique recipe. Beverage made according to the recipe became popular rapidly, the family business broadened and several factories were opened. The company still belongs to the Fentiman family.

Jigger is an old English word for a method used for combining the juice of eight mandarins and the zest of Seville orange in every bottle.
