Gin Making Workshop Become a gin distiller for the day and try your hand at creating your own custom gin. Work with one of our distillers to make a gin of your own creation using your choice of botanicals, including some you can pick from our very own botanical garden! Single still ($250 each)Shared still ($350 for 2) Maximum 7 stills per workshopProgramme Workshops times can vary, but are often held on the third Saturday of the month from 12:00pm to 4:00pm. Friday workshops can also be arranged by appointment. Guided tour of the distillery. Learn about the history of gin, and modern Australian gins. Savour and sip the South Coast range from contemporary, dry and navy strength to Illawarra plum and the Oolong infused Old Tom, with expert guidance to identify the key flavourings (botanicals) and your preferences. Next we go out into the botanical garden, learning about edible natives and their use in spirits. An experienced distiller will discuss your preferred recipe, before you select your choice of botanicals and amounts - picking some from the botanical garden if desired. A special lunch follows with delicious local seasonal food that is flavour matched for G+Ts. Watch your recipe come to life before your eyes as the botanicals bubble and mix in the glass stills. Finally, depart with 700mL of your own distilled gin, labelled with your recipe. Note: If you wish to bring your own botanicals please advise.
