I've just set up my own distillery company!

Big thumbs up. Good wishes mate.

Nice one, what’s the eta for the first pour 😉 just enjoying some of the fine Tassie spirits I snuck out when I left so need something new to try

Great to see your progress, keep up the good work and I look forward to trying the final product, Im a big rum fan!

You need to hope that the HSE don’t see the video of the roof demolition, the scaffolding was a joke

I suggest you get a CSCS card and mug up on CDM as well

The youtube videos are getting better. Have a look at Mick Grewcock, for one man in a shed he achieves very high production quality

First pour might be in the summer. July, maybe? Having a small nightmare with my intended distilling equipment!

I have a CSCS card, and have read up on CDM.

Production quality = time + equipment + energy. I’m short of two and making do with the other.

any samples for the stw massive?

Not yet, maybe in a few months 😉

I suggest you look at the working at height bit again if you are signing off on risk assessments and method statements

Alternatively don’t film it for YouTube

Two years on from starting this thread, and I distilled my first rum yesterday 🙂

Thought folk might be interested, since it’s been a while since I posted!

Awesome news!!

Have you thought of a snappy name for your new product?

What about “Repentance “

What about “Repentance “

I read that as ‘Temperance’ and thought it an odd suggestion 😉

How do we acquire a bottle of your finest?

Baby Robin.

Congratulations Kit.

How do we acquire a bottle of your finest?

Mod friendly answer: it’s not for sale, ever.
Mod unfriendly answer: it’s not for sale yet, keep ’em peeled on social media (‘Ninefold Distilery’) for a launch date etc. 😉

Nice one….

Nice one.
I’d buy a bottle of baby robin rum!

Was Ninefold Distlery you say? I shall check out Ninefold Distlery now on Facebook.

Excellent work Kit.
I will have to come down for a nosey 😀

Aye, all welcome! Just don’t expect a fancy coffee or even a seat 😉

I won’t be expecting a coffee. 😬

Anywhere to bivvy nearby? Wouldn’t want to be driving – or cycling – after a visit 😜

Liked! I love Rum!

And Congratulations!

Congratulations..
Will have to get the road bike sorted and take a pedal over in a couple of weeks….

Anywhere to bivvy nearby?

Plenty! There’s also a spare bedroom or two in the cottage next door (my house).

Before you all start turning up, what was it called again? Oh yeah, Minefields and you can find it on Facebook. Damned autocorrect, Ninefolds, Ninefolds, Ninefolds. Well done the ginger fox.

Was that Ninefolds Distillery?

Well looky here what I found…

Nice, ta. Under 2 hour car drive for me…

I can pedal itvin that, my next road ride. Might need to buy 2, drink one on the way home…

It might taste like monkey piss for all I know, but there’s a whole lot to like about that packaging and design. That’s a Nice Thing, someone needs a pat on the back.

I saw the Ninefold pickup driving into Moffat on Saturday morning, I felt excited like I had spotted a celebrity.

Good luck with the venture. Perhaps it’s because there was a reichsadler opposite where junior lived last year on the Bundesagentur für Arbeit in Friedrichstrasse (and another one at Tempelhof) but the symbolism of the wings and the way they are orientated troubled me when I saw the logo.

That’s a Nice Thing, someone needs a pat on the back.

All down to these guys: Contagious

I felt excited like I had spotted a celebrity.

I’m happy to sign your boobs/moobs.

Edukator I’ve had one or two comments (literally) to that effect, but when you look at the imagery side-by-side, they’re not really alike. Only insofar as they’re geometric and have wings. My angel is based on 700 years of family history anyway and is simply a stylised version of my family crest.

Reminds me of the Bentley wings.
