If you are looking for a fun and educational way to spend an hour the Shakespeare Distillery is a great place to do it - We were give a voucher last Christmas and it turned out to be one of the best presents we have ever had . All the staff made our visit very interesting and enjoyable and probably the best Gin you will ever drink .

Distillery tour and tasting - Excellent visit. Very interesting and informative. G&Ts just got a lot more complicated 🤣🤣🤣. Worked very well getting an uber from the centre of Stratford so we could both enjoy the tasting. Would highly recommend

Enjoyable and Informative visit - Recommended - Very informative and enjoyable visit.
Had 3 taster gins - all very good, served with a variety of mixers. My personal favourite being the Shakespeare London Dry Gin. It was a small group tour, with plenty of opportunity of asking questions.
After the tasting, we were offered a choice of drinks to choose from. Drivers were given a 50ml sample of their choice take home. The gift shop was well stocked.
The 1pm time was a little challenging as difficult to work out when to eat. We ended up having a very late lunch.

Excellent - It was a small group. Family run business. Very informative. No pushy sales. Excellent service. Make sure you have a gin before or after in the reception bar. Good prices and supporting the small business.

A day on the gin - The first section was very informative and the presenter made it entertaining. The second part dealt with the process and gave a real insight into making gin and rum. The presentation was very good. Lastly we had a chance to experience gin and rum. Again the presentation was great and the experience very good. All in all it was a very good way to spend a couple of hours and I would certainly recommend it to my friends and family. Now all I have to do is drink my purchases.
