Thoroughly enjoyed the Workshop. Our teacher Evie was very friendly & informative & also her colleague Jack. We were with a lovely group of people who all shared our enthusiasm. Lovely G&T to start with & delicious pizza lunch & we left with our own bespoke bottle of gin, what could be better. Thoroughly recommend.

Wow - what a wonderful experience - we arrived and were welcomed enthusiastically, shown to our area and straight away given a complimentary G&T. Much appreciated. Throughout the experience we were totally absorbed in the detail and hands on aspect of gin making. Complimentary pizza for lunch was both delicious and welcoming. The presenter was extremely knowledgable, patient and friendly throughout. We were delighted with the whole experience and would thoroughly recommend anyone to partake, whether you are a gin drinker or not.

Had a fantastic day at the workshop. The gin on arrival was lovely and the pizza to finish it off was one of the best I’ve eaten. Staff were so lovely and attentive and you could really see how passionate they were in their job. Had so much fun making our own gin and customising our flavour! Overall a brilliant experience and would definitely recommend it to family and friends.

Fantastic experience learning how to make personalized gin. The teacher was so knowledgeable and interesting, very welcoming atmosphere. I loved loading the ice into the machine and watching the gin slowly filling our jugs...very satisfying and fun. Great value for money as we were served a generous gin and tonic along with delicious pizzas.

Perfect day. Thank you.

Jack was a great host for this event - knowledgeable, friendly and patient and helped everyone to make their own unique bottle of gin. The atmosphere in the distillery is a mix of science class and cosy bar. The pizza was delicious too and we found it easy to book.
