Make Your Own Spirits Workshops, hosted by the owners and distillers, Andy & Zoe.
We begin with a welcome G&T, followed by a look around our micro distillery while we talk about the alchemy of creating spirits.
You can choose to make a bottle for one, or come as a couple and create one between you. We keep the groups small, only 6 stills maximum. In this way we can give you all the attention and guidance you need to produce your signature gin or vodka, in a relaxed atmosphere.
With 40+ botanicals to sniff through, it’s all about the nose! How many do you need to for your gin? That’s up to you! The least has been 4, and the most was 28…so far! Once you’ve mixed your botanicals they go in a mini-still with a blend of alcohol & filtered Cumbrian water.
While distilling we’ll serve you a couple of sweet treats, scones and a tipple of your choice, plus tea and coffee.
Then it’s time to find the perfect %abv for your special spirit before we bottle it. To complete your experience, we'll create a personalised label with your chosen image and name.
