Medine

The Medine distillery was established in 1926 by The Medine Sugar Estates Co, and is today part of the holdings of what is known as the Medine Group. The distillery is owned through a subsidiary called Medine Distillery Company Ltd and produces rum, alcohol and vinegar for the local and export markets.

In 2010, the distillery's parent company founded the Indian Ocean Rum Co as a joint-venture with Berry Brothers & Rudd (BBR). The company introduced a portfolio of brands that included Pink Pigeon and Penny Blue, however the trademark for the latter is owned by BBR who divested their stake in the business in 2021.
