Lough Mask Distillery launches Crowdcube campaign for expansion

The award-winning distillery seeks funding to expand production and become a major tourist destination in County Mayo

The growing demand for authentic and sustainable spirits further strengthens their appeal

Lough Mask Distillery has launched a crowdfunding campaign on Crowdcube. Funds raised will be used to fuel several key growth initiatives, with a particular focus on expanding production facilities and establishing Lough Mask Distillery as a major tourist destination in County Mayo. The distillery’s decision to utilise Crowdcube opens the door to everyday investors.

Their Loch Measc Gin, infused with the essence of wild fuchsia and honeysuckle can be found at Ashford Castle and major Irish airports including Dublin, Shannon, and Ireland West.

Distillery tours

Guided tours showcase Lough Mask Distillery’s distillation process, from the selection of sourced grains and botanicals to the intricate workings of their copper pot stills.

The distillery plans to incorporate interactive elements, allowing visitors to participate in the process of crafting their own small-batch gin or vodka.

Educational seminars will look into the history of Irish whiskey and the unique characteristics of the Mayo terroir, providing a deeper understanding of the art and science behind Lough Mask Distillery’s creations. Visitors can participate in a curated selection of Lough Mask Distillery’s gins and vodkas during a tasting experience.

For those seeking a glimpse into the future, a sneak peek into the maturation process of their highly anticipated single malt whiskey will undoubtedly pique their interest. Slated for release in 2025, this offering promises to be a revelation, further solidifying Lough Mask Distillery’s reputation for crafting exceptional spirits.

Crowdcube

Lough Mask Distillery’s decision to utilise Crowdcube offers a unique advantage in their expansion strategy. Unlike traditional investment avenues limited to venture capitalists or high-net-worth individuals, Crowdcube opens the door to everyday investors.

This democratisation of investment allows passionate individuals, spirit enthusiasts, and even local residents of Mayo to become a part of the distillery’s journey.

The growing demand for authentic and sustainable spirits further strengthens their appeal. Lough Mask Distillery’s unwavering commitment to local ingredients and traditional methods resonates with today’s discerning consumers seeking a genuine experience.

The distillery is poised for significant expansion with the Crowdcube campaign, representing a pivotal moment in their journey.

The campaign offers an opportunity for investors to become part of a growing success story and for Mayo to establish itself as a major player in Ireland’s dynamic spirits industry.
