Gin Tasting - The distiller who gave the tastings was entertaining and engaging. The tour offered a variety of gin tastings along with the distilling process. It was a nice introduction for those that don’t drink gin and those who had familiarity with it as well.

An insider’s look at the gin game - Our distillery tasting was a great experience with James. He is the business so we got a broad overview of South Loch gins and the spirits industry in the UK and beyond. Tasty gins, laughs, and a real class in making “flavoured vodkas”!
