Whilst your spirit is distilling, you will be whisked away to the lab for a molecular cocktail demonstration with our Brand Ambassador. However these cocktails will be demystified for you to recreate at home.

your experience

While you enjoy delicious food from local purveyors (for that all important soakage), we will bottle and label your bottle of unique spirits to take home, you can even dedicate it to a loved one!

 

The whole experience lasts about 2.5 hours, but your spirit experience doesn’t have to end there, your spirit will have its own unique code which you can re-order any time you want.

We went for a gin distillation class. They were very informative and helpful, and answered all my questions! Their premade gins are also quite good. Highly advise stop by even just for a cocktail.

Great idea for staff socials, birthday celebrations or just a random outing. Conor did a great job running through the history of the business and interesting science behind the process. Overall enjoyable, unique experience. Would highly recommend.

If your looking for something that's unique, fun, entertaining and even at points educational I'd highly recommend a tour with the guys at Stillgarden. Jake and Connor (with 1 N😉) were the perfect hosts. The experience of concocting our own gin with the help and guidance of the guys will be a treasured me memory for years to come. Also knowing our recipe is saved we can recreate the fun. The connection to the community is inspirational, the ice-cream cocktail was beyond delicious and the platter of meats and cheese was a special touch, also very needed after the gin tasting. Thank you all.
