Sheffield School of Gin
Step into the world of gin with the team behind Sheffield Dry Gin, and enjoy an immersive, hands-on experience in this exclusive gin emporium—tucked away above True North Brewery on Eldon Street, right in the heart of Sheffield city centre.
With a welcome gin & tonic in hand, you’ll delve into the rich history of gin, discover the role of botanicals, and learn the secrets behind the distillation process.
Then, under expert guidance, you’ll select and weigh your own botanicals before distilling a one-of-a-kind gin using traditional copper pot stills.
During your session, you'll enjoy:
- A welcome drink along with a selection of Sheffield Dry Gin & tonics
- Plus lots of samples and tastings throughout
- Your own personalised bottle of gin to take home
- A complimentary celebratory drink next door at The Forum (voucher provided)
Whether you’re gifting the experience or treating yourself, this is gin-making at its finest.
