Gin School, Tastings and Behind the Scenes Distillery Tour for Two at Gorilla Spirits
About this experience
Discover the art of distillation with this Gin School, Tastings and Behind the Scenes Distillery Tour for Two at Gorilla Spirits.
Your day of discovery will see you take a deep dive into Britain’s most notorious spirit with the experts. G&Ts in hand (and topped up throughout), you’ll design your own bespoke gin, using botanicals drawn from Gorilla Spirits’ extensive library. You’ll operate a mini copper pot still to distil your elixir; you’ll be in full control throughout, testing, proofing and distilling a full bottle to take home together. You’ll even make enough to enjoy a final G&T at the bar.
As part of your experience, you’ll get a behind-the-scenes distillery tour, hear the story of Gorilla Spirits, and taste some of their award-winning creations.
