What to expect
Your driver collects you from central London and heads west into the Cotswolds, narrating the landscape and local history as you travel. You'll pause in characterful villages—stone cottages, green commons, working farms—before arriving at the distillery in late morning. The tasting experience lasts roughly two hours: a guided walk around the site (including a brief staircase climb to see the production gantry in action), then seated tastings of their spirits in the café. Those under 18 receive soft drinks; all guests can browse the shop. Budget time for lunch in a nearby village (your expense) before the return journey to London.
Good to know
Distillery tasting costs £30 per person, payable in cash on the day. Lunch is not included; you'll settle your own bill at the village restaurant. Wear comfortable shoes—the distillery tour involves 45 minutes of walking and standing. Stairs access the production area; enquire ahead if mobility is a concern. Gratuities (10% suggested) are voluntary.
