Copper Rivet Distillery

An award winning distillery in the heart of Kent at the Historic Dockyard in Chatham. Times may change but the Dockyard Spirit Endures.

And the building's size, height and ventilation makes it a perfect site for a distillery. We’re truly insp

Today we are celebrating Matthew's birthday! πŸŽ‰

Matthew is one of our distillery founders alongside his brother Stephen and dad Bob. We actually have Matthew to thank for our home... the incredible Pumphouse No.5.

On a visit to Upnor Castle with his wife back in 2015, Matthew spotted our then derelict building and the very next day came and visited it. The rest is history!

We hope you have a fantastic day, Matthew.
