Visit to Sipmiths Gin Distillery.
The presentation and tour of the distillery was superb. The presenters knew their stuff, made the subject matter interesting and informative. The distillery itself was impressive and interesting. What a great visit.

Excellent distillery tour
The best trip I have made to a distillery, brewery or winery. We had really entertaining and informative guides, and a variety of gins and cocktails to try. It was very good value. The only warning is do not drive afterwards!
C
Great tour of a small London distillery.
The tour was great. The history, of gin and of the distillery, paired with the tastings were excellent. Sitting at a table in the distillery as we tasted and learned was a fun experience. The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. The gin was fantastic too

Fantastic Tour and Tasting at Sipsmith Gin Distillery in Chiswick
I purchased the voucher for a Sipsmith Gin Distillery and Tasting through Travelzoo and it was fantastic. We were welcomed with a Sloe Gin and lemonade while we waited for the other participants to arrive. The Distillery entrance is tucked away in a residential area in Chiswick. A short walk away from Turners Hill tube station on the District Line. Our tutors were Ellie and Levenka, who fascinated us with the story of Sipsmith Distillery and its founders, the ingredients used in their Gin and the process. We had a tasting of a selection of their Gins they produce and a cocktail with mixers if required. It was amazing value for money and a fun and informative evening. We then had the opportunity to buy their Gins and given a goody bag.

Great tour
This was an amazing experience. We learnt lots. The tastings were really good and lots of options to try with tonic lemonade and ginger ale. Our 2 guides really made it. Jes and Jaz I believe they were called. Would fully recommend this tour
Z
Entertaining and informative gin distillery tour
This was a great experience. It said it lasts 1.5hrs but allow for 2. There were 22 on our tour but as it all takes place in one area it didn’t feel crowded. Very informative and engaging with a good selection of samples and a goody bag to take home. Not easy for us to get to on public transport but worth the effort.
