Amazingly innovative and well-designed distillery. Through the guided tour we learnt about the fascinating architecture, the history of the distillery, made ourselves freshly tapped gin-tonic and got to know a lot more about gin thanks to our wonderful, dedicated and funny guide, Chloe. It is the perfect program if you’re in the area!
Good and informative experience. Tour starts off with trying cocktail and video clip of around 15min in their new cinema hall. Then we go around distillery, wonderful views as well. Worth the money.
What a great tour and great place to visit. The bar and cafe fit in perfectly with the tour. The master class package was more than expected. Starting with a tour the guide Luke was so pationate and knowledgeable. He became known as Ginny Wonka as he took us around. Then onto the cocktail making class which again surpassed all expectations. Best not to drive if doing this tour.
We visited on a tour, we were a little late so missed our gin and most of the video in the cinema. The place is interesting, not sure it has very much to do with the gin however. If you like gin it’s a decent day out, but it’s a bit more about the history of the site (printed all of the worlds paper money there at one point, India House is where the rupees were printed for example), so it’s interesting, but perhaps not all relevant to a gin lover. The greenhouse was designed by the same chap as designed London buses and they don’t use those botanicals but you do learn about how they use botanicals to make the gin. I would suggest perhaps not going over Christmas as everything was turned off and it was freezing cold and not much seating.
Phenomenal! I’ve wanted to visit for a while and I am glad we got to finally experience it. Our tour guide was Luke who was highly enthusiastic, funny and knowledgable. It ended with a gin masterclass with Ellie, who was witty, knowledgeable and engaging. After enjoying the cocktails we made by the stream, we visited the gift shop and fell victim to some tipsy present purchasing for Christmas. There was a young Asian lady (sorry, didn’t catch her name!) in the gift shop that allowed us to try different samples to help support my purchasing, and a friendly gentleman called Tyler who engraved my gifts. Overall, the experience was unique and definitely one to recommend to friends (already done this haha). Thank you for making this so special!
