Coates
Coates & Co,
along with the other various incarnations of Plymouth Gin, could easily fill a
book in their own right and for that reason they are mentioned only briefly
here for the sake of space.
As well as bottles, the company is represented
by a wide range of advertising items such as match strikers, trays and the
like. Many of the company’s labels and advertising items carry the trade mark
image of a monk in reference to the company’s premises, the Blackfriars
Distillery.
