“Well, we’re constantly fighting,” jokes Keith McAvoy about what it’s like be part of a business with seven brothers.<\/p>\n
“There’s plenty of that, I guess growing up as any typical siblings. When there’s seven of us, plus four sisters as well – there’s 11 of us in total with an age range now of 32 to 54 – things can get a little bit tetchy now and again but on the whole, we all get on really really well. It’s probably better now than when we had to live together all the time.<\/p>\n
“It’s been interesting, never boring. We are pretty close I must say.”<\/p>\n
\nWe’ve had our ups and downs being in business together, but we’re family at the end of the day, we always end up forgiving each other<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
Are the sisters involved?<\/p>\n
“No, they’re not. However, they’ve decided to go and start something themselves separately but making gin. They’re going to call themselves the Four Sisters Distillery. They could be ready for launch in December,” Keith added.<\/p>\n
“I think they’ve felt a little bit left out these last three-and-a-half years, so they’ve gone and created their own.”<\/p>\n
