Celebrating 10 Years of Shetland Reel Gin

  • Submitted by: Emma Roddick, Highlands and Islands, Scottish National Party.
  • Date lodged: Thursday, 24 October 2024
  • Motion reference: S6M-15020

That the Parliament celebrates 10 years of Shetland Reel Gin, which is distilled in the UK’s most northerly distillery; understands that the first Shetland Reel Gin was produced on 31 October 2014 at the Saxa Vord Distillery in Unst, with the distillery being the sister company of the neighbouring SaxaVord Spaceport; recognises that, when first produced, Shetland Reel Gin was only available in Scotland, but that it is now enjoyed by customers across the world; further recognises the significant effort made by the team over the last decade to embed the distillery in the community, which has heavily contributed to its growing success; congratulates the entire team on the work that it has done over the past 10 years, and sends its best wishes for the years to come.
