Best gin tour by far

GaryWatson2911, Mar 2026

We were met by Alan at the door. Alan is the master distiller and he immediately welcomed us and put us at ease. He gave us an overview of the distillery and was very knowledgeable. We had booked the gin flight tasting. Before it began we were met by our host Dan. Dan and Alan are partners in the business. Again Dan was extremely knowledgeable and passionate about the distillery. His knowledge of the gins and ingredients were amazing and extremely informative and interesting. We had approx 10 gins. Indeed it was so good we took the optional upgrade which gave us the opportunity to taste several more. Would I recommend this tour. 100000% YES. It was fantastic and I don't say this lightly. It was incredibly informative, entertaining and really interesting. I learnt so much. Whilst we have done several gin tour this has been the best by far and all down to Dan and Alan, both great guys. We are booking again soon but this time to try our own distilling of our own gin which comes with a personalised label. See you soon guys

Great Experience

Tourist607276, Jan 2026

Spent a great afternoon at a Gin School Experience with the very knowledgeable, entertaining and helpful hosts Alan and Dan! Alongside an entertaining and lighthearted history lesson, a number of different gins were tasted then we made our own gins with ingredients chosen by ourselves. Well worth the visit for any of the experiences offered and a great way to support a local business.

Fun and interesting experience
