“This was an excellent tour, and great value for money. Our tour guide was brilliant; informative, knew his stuff, but also exceptionally funny. The first part of the tour was exploring the history of Pickering’s and the history of gin and learning about the site that we were in. The second part was a gin tasting with a cocktail included and when the tour ended, we had a chance to have a gin and tonic in the bar, which was included in the price of our visit. It’s easy to see from this tour how that the gin here is made with love, and how creative and thoughtful they are about making new gins - and although there is a line of merch and a shop where you can buy the gins, that was not pushed too hard during the tour, which I appreciated. I would very much recommend this tour, and you can hang around afterwards and get food and drinks in on-site pub.”

“Just finished my very informative tour at the Pickering gin company! Learned a tremendous amount about gin, distillation, history of gin in the UK and tonic for that matter and had a great tasting… I would highly recommend this tour for anyone who enjoys GIN or any spirit for that matter!”

“What a great experience and we were impressed by our host, Eloi, who was very friendly and knowledgeably. The cocktails were really tasty, and making them yourself gave that extra 'flavor'. The local Scottish cheeses were a perfect match!”

“5 of us did the tour today. Hugely enjoyable. Elois (a Franco-Scot) did a fab job; knowledgeable & charming, we had a really fun time! If you like gin, the tour is a great way to up your smarts & educate your tastebuds. Oh, and the product 😁: Pickering Gin is excellent! I was less familiar with it and am now definitely a convert….happy trails!”
