Boatyard Double Gin from Northern Ireland Boatyard Distillery is now on sale in the iconic Harrods store in London.

Boatyard Double Gin is a unique, award-winning gin produced near Enniskillen in county Fermanagh, Northern Ireland. Made with spirit from organically grown wheat, the gin uses a combination of organic botanicals, including 'sweet gale' taken from the owner's local family farm, to give the gin a distinctive smooth, flavourful and refreshing taste profile.

Harrods, the luxury department store which welcomes over 15 million customers each year, is internationally renowned for its diverse range of luxury products and is the epitome of quality.

Joe McGirr, chief executive of The Boatyard Distillery, says: "We are delighted to have secured this hugely significant listing for our award-winning, first product. With our focus on the quality and provenance of our ingredients, and the production of organic base spirit, we believe that Boatyard Double Gin is a perfect fit with the premium products available in the Harrods portfolio.

"To have our first product available in one of the world's most well-known and busy department stores allows us to showcase our gin to millions of shoppers from all over the world. It's a tremendous opportunity for us."

The Boatyard Distillery has a thriving on-trade business supplying its premium gin to an ever-increasing number of the UK's finest hotels, Michelin-starred restaurants and world-famous style bars. It has also won distribution listings in Dublin with the Celtic Whiskey Shop and Speciality Drinks in London.

The distillery takes its name from a former boatyard that has been converted into a state-of-the-art, craft distillery overlooking the picturesque Lough Erne in Northern Ireland's Lakelands. It is one of the first distilleries in the world to be accessible to visitors by both land and water with the ethos of producing farm-to- bottle spirits in one of the most beautiful locations in the world.
