A fairly short tour (we took the £7 Tour) which nonetheless gave us all we needed to know. Quite a small place, but with a very interesting history. Good look round an old part of the Barbican and well presented by the young lady who took us round. Don't take a big bag as you have to lock them away... More

This small distillery is well worth a visit. Located in the Barbican area which is a very attractive & historical part of Plymouth. The short and very interesting tour is led by an enthusiastic guide. The guide clearly has a passion about the history of the Distillery and explains the processes old and new. After the tour, one then retires... More

We had the vouchers for the master tour as a present. When we found the tour would be over two hours we did wonder if we would be bored. How wrong we were. When they say you get to make your own gin you really do. We thought we would be adding flavours to a pre-made gin but in fact... More

Just visited today and had 2 gin & tonics, could not taste the gin as the bartender filled the glass's up with tonic to the top and just to add insult to injury attempted to short change me by £10 pounds.

We didn't do any of the tours because it was fully booked so we went into the Bar instead. Lovely cocktails, well made with the best ingredients. Not cheap at £7.00 but still not bad value compared to other bars in the area and hotel prices and the surroundings are really comfortable, leather sofas and beautiful wood vaulted ceiling. A...

The small distillery located in the old and most attractive part of Plymouth is definitely worth a visit. The short, but very interesting, tour is brought alive by the enthusiasm of the lovely guide who spoke passionately about the history of the Distillery and how it is still run today. Being able to not only see, but interact with the... More

Want something different to do in Plymouth? Then visit the Gin distillery. The trip is brilliant, the history even better. Harriet was a great host and the connoisseur trips is great. as is the various gins. what an eye opener.
