Kingsland Drinks Group and Manchester Still partner on craft spirits facility

Kingsland Drinks Group has partnered with Manchester Still to install a new fermentation and distillation facility adjacent to its site in Irlam, Salford. Up and running this month, the facility gives Kingsland Drinks Group and sister company, Ten Locks, the ability to produce artisan spirits, and will also be the manufacturing site for Manchester Still’s premium brands – which offer spiced, coconut and white rums. Manchester Still and Kingsland are planning a pipeline of spirits NPD, with a new release from Ten Locks expected this summer. According to a Kingsland spokesperson, "the project is one part of a multimillion-pound investment in recent years in infrastructure and capabilities". Andy Sagar, chairman of Kingsland Drinks Group, commented: “The partnership realises a desire we’ve had for some time – to create world-class spirits on home turf and present a true full-service offering to the industry. We’re proudly creating crafts spirits shoulder to shoulder with Manchester Still. This is the coming together of two northern companies ready to firmly cement Greater Manchester’s growing reputation as a hive of innovation in the drinks industry."
