Award-winning Boringdon Hall, the luxurious 5-star, 16th-century manor hotel nestled in the heart of the Devon countryside, is thrilled to announce its first-ever series of exclusive Gin Making workshops in collaboration with gin partner ‘Still On The Move’. This unique experience will run throughout June and is scheduled to celebrate and coincide with World Gin Day (14th June).
Guests are invited to immerse themselves in the art of gin production during this hands-on workshop, beginning with a welcome cocktail made from the finest Boringdon Hall Gin—an ideal introduction to the world of botanicals and distillation. Sip and savour the blend as you relax in the charming surroundings on the edge of Dartmoor, setting the perfect tone for a highly creative afternoon that promises to tingle the taste buds.
This engaging afternoon will guide participants through the delicate art of designing, blending, and distilling their own bespoke gin recipe, created on the day through collaboration with fellow participants using a shared 'still.'
Under the expert guidance of skilled distillers, guests will gain a deep understanding of how to balance flavours and botanicals, before discovering the distillation techniques that give each batch its unique character. Using this newfound knowledge, they will have the opportunity to experiment with a wide range of botanicals—such as juniper, angelica root, and citrus peel—to craft a personalised 35cl bottle of gin, perfectly tailored to their individual tastes.
Once their creation is complete, guests will bottle their gin and design a bespoke label, adding that final touch of personalisation to their handcrafted masterpiece.
