A great evening which the best team - We were gifted this tour as a wedding present and had such a wonderful time. We had been on a tour of Plymouth Gin Distillery so were expecting it to be a bit similar but it had a very different vibe and was such a fun night out. The team were amazing, really knowledgable and struck the perfect balance between giving information and creating a relaxed environment (sorry I can't remember your names but I know one of your favourite gins was the Lime and Lemongrass!). Will definitely recommend, buy as presents and would come again!

Gintastic! - Fantastic event, very entertaining. Knowledgable host gave a good insight into the history of gin, the early days of the company and its development and into the distilling of gin. Tasting included great variety - all very good. The Slow Gin and the Very Berry were our favourites. Good opportunity to start Christmas Shopping after the event. We absolutely recommend the tour and say thanks to Rich, Callum and Amy for the great evening at Sipsmith.

Great end to a girlie day out meandering around London - From arriving at 2.30 to check we knew how to get there the 2 young ladies made us feel special and directed us to where we needed to be. Then arriving at 6.20 to be met by a smiling Callum who welcomed us, asking if we were the two ladies that got there at 2.30. He was funny and made us feel special The whole tour which was run by 3 young men was really interesting and informative. A lovely event. Highly recommended.

Lovely end to a girlie day out exploring London. - Had a great time at the Sipsmith’s Distillery Tasting last night, the three chaps who hosted were brilliant, especially Callum, who from the moment we arrived outside made my friend and I feel special. We even got to the distillery 4 hours early, just to check we know how to get there, and met two female workers, who were also a pure delight, all in all a lovely way to round of a day meandering around London. Would recommend.

Fantastic gin tour - This is a great experience for any gin lover. The lovely friendly team made us feel very welcome and taught us all about the history of gin with some fascinating tales. Good to try gin I never even knew Sipsmith made and got a beautiful goodie bag to go home with. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and would highly recommend it!

Great gift for the gin lover - Would recommend to any gin drinkers out there... such a fun experience; plenty of gin to taste, a great host and a goodie bag to take home as well. What's not to like? Our host for evening was very well-informed and engaging and the distillery, tucked away in a residential street, was delightful.

If you like gin you gotta come here! - Really enjoyed the tour. Welcomed with a generous (& welcome) gin & tonic by Sandy & Henry, all very relaxed. Sandy then gave an informed and light-hearted insight into the company’s beginnings and 11 year history. We were introduced to Constance, Verity, Patience and Cygnet the copper stills that produce the gin. They produce in limited quantities, everything is clean and precise to give the brand its unique take on ‘Mother’s Ruin’. As we listened we were treated to able to sample different gins from the Sipsmith range, needless to say everyone was in good humour ..indeed my better half was getting quite light-headed . The tour lasted about 90 mins (allowing 30 mins or so time to savour the London Dry on arrival). It was once of the best tours of this type we’ve attended, Sandy made it entertaining as well as great fun with his humour and knowledge.

Very Interesting and enjoyable - Went to this tour with my colleges at KidZania, we were all made a large gin and tonic at the beginning which was very tasty. I had no particular interest in Gin before, but the master distiller made the history of gin very interesting and I learnt a lot about how its made. Unfortunately I couldn't bear to try the neat gin samples, though the others in the group loved them.

Less of a tour... more of a lecture. - Beautiful distillery... the gin tastings were great! (Especially the sugarplum one). The guy leading the tour was good, but I just don’t think it was engaging enough for how much information was given. But overall was pretty dammm good.

Lots of character - Went on a tour of the distillery, I was very impressed with the amount of knowledge and detailed required when creating not only gin- but the perfect gin and tonic. The founder personally conducted our tour, such a great guy. I just wish it was bigger!
