What the day feels like
What the Experience Feels Like
The hour moves deliberately: a small, guided group gathers at the distillery, settles into the immersive gin room for a narrated history and botanical briefing, is led to inspect the still, and then gathers at the tasting station for three focused serves and a G&T—an intimate, informative encounter rather than a long tour.
