The part other shops don't tell you. Three separate questions, kept separate on purpose, each with its source.
Registered at Companies House as COPELAND SPIRITS LTD, number NI635249. Checked 2026-08-29.
Means the business is a British legal entity, not a British-sounding name owned elsewhere. It says nothing about where anything is made.
Stated by the company: "Located just a stone's throw from the historic Donaghadee Harbour - known in the 17th century as 'The Merchants' Quay' - our 6,500 sqft distillery revitalised the former Picture House Cinema & Ards Bottling Company." Source.
Means people employed here, or premises they actually work from. We keep this separate from the company badge because a registered office can be an accountant's spare room, and a company can be registered in Britain while everything it does happens somewhere else. Where we have not looked, we say so rather than assuming.
No majority shareholding traced outside the UK. Companies House.
Read from the register of people with significant control, following the chain of holding companies. It does not gate anything: a firm can be made here and owned elsewhere, and that is worth telling you rather than hiding.
The maker states: After 9 months of meticulous restoration, we proudly opened the doors to our permanent home. Located just a stone's throw from the historic Donaghadee Harbour - known in the 17th century as 'The Merchants' Quay' - our 6,500 sqft distillery revitalised the former Picture House Cinema & Ards Bottling Company. ... The heart of our operation beats within our three bespoke copper stills: Betty, Hessie & Pam - named in tribute to founder Gareth's grandmothers and mother. It is here we craft our award-winning spirits, from our Navy Strength gins to our signature Irish Whiskeys, the first of which we released in December 2024.

This is about the individual product, not the company. A British firm can sell things made abroad, which is normal and not a criticism. We would rather tell you which is which than average them into a score.
