History of Hill Rosins
In the early 1980s, the well-established British rosin makers, The Hidersine Company, were commissioned to manufacture bowed instrument rosin for W.E.Hill & Sons. These rosins are still manufactured to the same special recipe today by Hidersine, using a unique blend of oils and resins, appropriately setting it apart from the more common blends of beeswax used by other brands. Hill Rosins are still widely used by professionals, with availability from specialists in most countries across the globe.
