Blend Your Own Gin Masterclass

Learn to create your own unique gin blend!

Blend Your Own Gin Masterclass will teach you about the history and science of gin making whilst getting the chance to taste one or two of our finest gins. The distiller will then guide you through the process of selecting botanicals and experimenting with different flavour combinations.
