Great afternoon out Brilliant tour. Great family run distillery just outside of Stratford. Claire and David were so professional, fun and informative!!!

Excellent value for money. Excellent drinks. Really do recommend. Decided to go on a whim and so glad we did.Our tour kicked off with a bit of Gin backstory, presented well by knowledgeable staff. Was interesting seeing the modern stills, so very different from the old copper versions we'd seen in Scottish Highlands. Such a different feel. Even though it's a modern operation the tour still managed to steep it in their own little bit of history. The tour finishes up with tasting session where we were able to sample 3 of their rather delectable products across their Gins and Rums, complete with expert commentary on production, tasting notes, and tips on how to serve. Even after all of that, we got to chose another drink out of the 3 we'd tried or take a chance on 2 others not yet sampled!We were so impressed that I think that we will be taking up one of their Gin School sessions as a Christmas present to ourselves. The idea of making our own gin to take home sounds like a fantastic time. We're already looking forward to going back!

Saturday 3pm Gin tour Fantastic tour, great experience and plenty of gin & rum to sample !! Great to be able to make our own gin and bottle it up to take home. Will definitely be booking a return visit with friends !!!

Top tier experience! The best distillery tour I have ever done! The hosts of the tour were super friendly and knowledgeable and really made everyone feel at home. The whole package is really good value for money as you get to taste a lot of gin (or rum) and get to enjoy a full size drink of your favourite as well receiving discount in the shop. The spiced tropical rum is probably going to be my new favourite drink - it is delicious! 100% visiting again for the gin school & may well be my new favourite brand.

Great day, Great Gin, Great hosts! Great day, Great Gin, Great hosts! A very warm welcome from Claire and the rest of the staff at the Shakespeare Distillery, created a relaxed atmosphere whilst sharing their passion for gin when relating the distillation process and the different botanicals used - plus lots of laughs too." Knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful, enhanced the overall experience.

Gin school! Lovely afternoon learning about the origin of gin, distilling, tasting and making our own gin! All staff were knowledgeable, welcoming, helpful and friendly. Definitely recommend to anyone who likes gin!

It's a rum fun experience This experience was unique and amazing, we had such fun, the staff were very friendly, knowledgeable and interactive. Making the rum was the best and tasting the rums were even better. 100% recommended this experience.

gin tasting Great experience, Claire was really lovely and delivered the session amazingly. Claire was very professional and the mini video was a great touch to the experience. We were a group of 4, 2 men and 2 women and we all thoroughly enjoyed all of it.

Evening Gin Cruise My friends and I went on the Gin cruise at Stratford Upon Avon. It was very enjoyable on a lovely warm evening. The river cruise was really relaxing and the staff from the gin company very entertaining. The gin was also excellent

Go, you will not be disappointed! Fantastic experience, full of insight and knowledge from those who run the company. Finished with a fun tasting at the gin school on sight.

Gin tour visit for my 70th. We had an amazing tour. The guides were really informative and knowledgeable but kept it lighthearted to everyone’s amusement. It was well organised and took the right length of time.

Couple of hours well spent! The tour was great. The history of gin at the start was really interesting as was learning the process of distilling the gin and rum. The tasting afterwards was really good with some top quality gin on offer. Would recommend if you are in the area.

Very enjoyable and informative visit The distillery tour, talk and tasting session were excellent. The staff were friendly, knowledgeable and fun also taking the time to answer all questions. Altogether a great way to spend an afternoon and I would highly recommend a visit!

A Tastefully Crafted Experience We had a fantastic experience at the Shakespeare Distillery in Stratford-upon-Avon on Friday, 16th May, attending one of their popular distillery tours. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by Simon, who set the tone for the visit with his friendly manner and engaging presentation. He gave us a fascinating insight into the history of gin and rum, as well as the origins and story behind the Shakespeare Distillery itself.The tour continued with David, who took us through the distillation process in detail, explaining the equipment and how their gin and rum are expertly crafted on site. His knowledge and enthusiasm made this part of the tour particularly enjoyable. We then heard from Jack, whose passion was clear as he walked us through the bottling process completing the journey from production to packaging.After the tour, we were invited to taste a range of their products, guided again by Simon. He offered great tips on serving, from the role of ice to the ideal alcohol to mixer ratios. It was informative and delicious! Both the gin and rum we sampled were truly excellent, flavourful, smooth, and clearly made with care and expertise. It’s easy to see why their products have won so many awards.We thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of the tour and highly recommend it to any adult visiting Stratford-upon-Avon or the surrounding area, especially those with an interest in craft spirits. A fantastic experience from start to finish!
