First Minister opens new gin distillery

14 May 2019

First Minister Nicola Sturgeon this week opened McQueen Gin’s brand-new distillery in Callander.

The impressive growth of McQueen Gin proves that it is possible with the right idea, product and people to go from a small start-up business to exporting around the world in a relatively short period of time – and that being rural-based provides no barrier to international success.”

First Minister talks about the growth of McQueen Gin and the success of Scotland’s gin industry.
