UK spirit, drinks and wines, covered by the Protected Food Name scheme, are included in a number of existing EU-US bilateral agreements. The US-UK Trade and Investment Working Group, established in July 2017, is working to secure continuity in the effect of these agreements on the day we leave the EU.
