Gin and Vodka School Experience at Nelson’s Distillery
About this experience
With this brilliant Gin and Vodka School Experience at Nelson’s Distillery, you can learn the ins and outs of what it takes to make delicious gin or vodka. Kicking things off with a tea or coffee and a distillery tour (Uttoxeter venue only), you’ll be taken through some of the processes before choosing the botanicals for a gin or vodka of your very own and enjoying a G&T.
You’ll each have a mini-still in which to work on your signature spirit. After a short lunch break complete with a G&T, it’ll be time to bottle and label your prize concoction. With a large and inspiring selection of botanicals, there’s something sure to please every palate. At the end of the day, you’ll take home a 70cl bottle of your personalised concoction.
In addition, the distillery keeps a record of each student’s individual botanical blend, so if you want to order further bottles of your unique spirit, all you have to do is get in touch!
