Sustainability
The Boatyard Distillery sits proudly in the banks of Lough Erne. This setting of true natural beauty gives our operation an extra strong reminder, on a daily basis, of how important sustainability is.
B Corp
At the beginning of 2023 the Boatyard Distillery very proudly became a certified B Corp corporation, and in fact we are the first Irish distillery to achieve such certification. B Corp as an organisation was first set up in 2006, and it is a movement that stands by the principle of, 'Make Business a Force For Good'. B Corp drives for continuous improvement for high-quality social and environmental business standards. Boatyard’s B Impact score is 92.1, to qualify for B Corp 80 is required, and the median score for businesses is 50.9
Certified Organic
Both our Double Gin and Vodka are 100% certified organic. Our juniper and all the botanicals are from organic crops. The wheat in our vodka comes from a local organic farmer in a direct distillery to farmer relationship.
Sustainable Mindset
From sending our stillage to local farmers for cattle feed, to reusing spent botanicals to make chocolate, every area of our production is constantly under review, with the ultimate goal of decarbonisation.
Further Eco Initiatives
The distillery now has an eco-refill station. Anyone can bring any empty 70cl bottle and we will refill it with their favourite Boatyard. This is designed to help reduce single use glass bottles.
For bars and restaurants, we also have an alternative to glass bottles, and that is 2.8L Eco-Pouches, again reducing glass usage but also hugely reducing Carbon output in transit.
For any bottles purchased online from the distillery, these are sent out using Flexi Hex technology, rather than plastic packaging.
