About this tour
Spend 90 minutes crafting your own gin at this hands-on distillery workshop in Birchs Bay, Tasmania. Work with an in-house botanist to select and blend spirits, creating a custom bottle you'll seal and take home. You'll taste experimental combinations, sip a signature Apple Crumble Cocktail, and leave with a spirit that's entirely yours—no two batches the same.

What to expect
You'll start by exploring the botanicals on offer—juniper, citrus peels, spices, florals—and learn how each shifts the flavour profile. The botanist guides you through tasting combinations and balancing your chosen ingredients. As you blend, you're encouraged to experiment; there's no "right" answer, just your preference. Mid-session, you'll sample the house signature cocktail to see how professional techniques work. Once you've settled on your blend, you'll watch it be measured and bottled, then seal it with wax. It's part laboratory, part bar, part craft workshop.
Good to know
Arrive sober enough to taste properly; you'll sample multiple spirits but nothing excessive. The session moves at a relaxed pace, so wear comfortable clothes. If you have dietary requirements or spirit allergies, mention them when booking. Your finished bottle is fragile—pack it carefully if travelling further.
