Itinerary

We will welcome you in with a double G&T and give you a full tour of our distiillery! We will then show you upstairs to the Gin School where you'll be seated at your very own still, ready for the real fun to begin! You'll be briefed on the process of making your own gin and then given the opportunity to select your own botanicals from the wide range available. Help will be on hand from our expert distiller to help with the selection process and once that is done, the distilling will begin. Whilst your gin is distilling, you'll enjoy another G&T as well as samples of our full range of gin whilst learning all about Stockport Gin and getting the chance to ask any questions you might have. Once the distilling process is over, you will then carefully blend your gin before bottling it in a 70cl bottle and labelling it, having given it a unique name. Finally, before heading home with your new creation, you'll get the chance to enjoy it as a perfectly served Gin and Tonic and share tasting notes with the rest of the group. You'll also get the chance to buy a bottle of your favourite Stockport Gin with an exclusive 10% discount on 70cl bottles!
