What To Expect
We host one of the most interactive and fun experiences for couples, groups or singles. A Gin & Tonic will be waiting for you on arrival before we take you through a brief history of gin, distillation methods and flavour profiles. You will then discover a range of flavours by sampling various pure botanical distillates and select the ones you will use as ingredients for blending your personalised gin recipe. I will help you develop and create your own personal gin according to your flavour preferences. After crafting your own gin, you will be able to enjoy it in a G&T as well as in a bottle to take home which you will fill, label, name and seal.
