The Boatyard Distillery

Dublin’s BAR 1661 recently invited us to take part in their new wonderful menu that is centred around Community. They have passionately partnered with various brands that they see to be a part of their community. With great pride we can unveil our collaboration, The Boatyard Distillery * BAR 1661 Gin. This gin which the team at 1661 helped create is a wonderful mix of tropical and herbaceous notes, and a spine characteristic of Boatyard.

Our local area is moving into a very festive feeling. To support these celebrations we have decided to bring out a limited edition Christmas jumper. Keeping in spirit with what is festive 100% of all profits of these jumpers shall be donated to our local charity, South West Age Partnership Allison who leads SWAP provides a selfless service to those elderly people who live near and around our distillery, ensuring that someone is supporting mental wellbeing and enrichment to those that sometimes, run out of support. It’s a time to celebrate, and with this jumper we hope to make a small donation to keep the likes of SWAP delivering a wonderful cheer. Order yours now before they're gone! https://lnkd.in/gYpWVVdD

What an honour to contribute as a B Corp brand to such a meaningful gathering! Being part of B Lab Ireland’s Annual Community Gathering allowed us to connect, celebrate, and reflect on the progress we’ve made this year. The night reminded us why we do what we do. Here’s to the power of community, collaboration, and setting even bolder goals for 2025!

Invest Northern Ireland has played a very important part in the growth of The Boatyard Distillery in a multitude of ways since our inception. This important resource for us has provided education, business support, in market development and financial support and has been an essential part of our business expansion. More recently their full support behind B Lab UK and B Lab Ireland has made our own sustainability goals possible and more achievable in a much faster time frame. It was fantastic to hear the new vision and strategy for the Northern Ireland economy set out by Kieran Donoghue. Thanks to John McKibben for hosting Boatyard on the panel and hearing journeys from Maeve Finnegan MCIM from Mitso, Claire Anderson from Mackle Food Company, Christopher McCoubrey from Unitas Software and Lydia Stevenson from INI

We are so thrilled and humbled to announce a significant recognition moment for Boatyard. We have proudly won the title ‘Sustainable Spirits Product of the Year’, at the Global Drinks Intel ESG awards 2024. This global award was presented to us in Cannes, France. For our distillery in Fermanagh to be even just mentioned in the same breath as some huge spirit brands is just mind blowing. We believe the sustainability route is the correct route to take. Thank you to all our supporters and well done to the team.

Recap of our first Negroni Week event at Rattlebag cocktail bar! We had the pleasure of teaming up with the legendary Joe Schofield and Liza from Schofield's bar and Campari Group. The evening was a celebration of craft cocktails, featuring a delicious Boatyard Double Gin Negroni curated by the talented team at Schofields. It was a perfect night filled with great company and exceptional drinks. We're already looking forward to the next round of Negronis—see you next year!
