The Fife firm, which is already achieving overseas sales successes across Asia and Europe, is working with US distributor ImpEx in a bid to target key markets such as California, Florida, New York and Texas.

Its range of tipples – including Hop Gin aimed at beer lovers and Oak Gin for whisky fans – will be hitting American shelves this summer and international sales manager Daniel Sherry said the company was “ecstatic” about the expansion plans.

He added: “Scotland has a rich history of distilling, and with a pool of talented distillers and the ideal climate for botanics, it is the perfect place to distill gin. We’re moving from strength to strength.”

Eden Mill has also recently revived whisky making at the same location where the famous Haig family made whisky, gin and beer for most of the 19th century, and is now gearing up to launch its first single malt.
