Hinch Distillery
Marcon has successfully completed the fit-out of Hinch Distillery in Ballynahinch, Co Down.
The 30,000 sq ft, two-story building includes a large whiskey and gin distillery producing the Craft Hinch Irish Whiskey and Ninth Wave Gin brands. The new building features an interactive visitor centre, coffee shop, brasserie restaurant, pub, retail area, reception, retail, induction rooms, still viewing, tasting room, function room, outside courtyard space and multi-purpose events spaces catering for weddings and corporate events.
Fully trained guides will bring visitors on an interactive and informative journey that will include a history of Irish whiskey and its unique distilling process, tutored tasting sessions, a specific gin tour and the opportunity to produce and bottle their own gins. The visitor centre will be able to accommodate more than 100,000 visitors a year.
Marcon completed the entire fit-out of the new build distillery. All specialist joinery within the new distillery were produced in our manufacturing facility demonstrating the exquisite quality of our joinery products.
Discussing the work that Marcon Fit Out completed Dr Terry Cross OBE, Chairman of the new Hinch Distillery, said: “We are thrilled with the finish that has been achieved at Hinch Distillery. Working with Marcon we set out to provide visitors with a highly differentiated product and experience that couples the production of our quality spirits with a story and heritage. We believe that by working in partnership we have delivered on this objective.
“The Marcon team have been great to work with and professional throughout. The contract was fulfilled on time, on budget and to a high standard. We hope Hinch Distillery will become a leading tourist attraction that offers guests a real understanding of the skills and methods needed to produce our whiskey and gin. Today the Visitors Centre is celebrating yet another milestone. Hinch Brasserie is now open and Guided Tours will launch in the coming weeks.”
