Overview

Visit the City of Aberdeen Distillery & Gin School - with a double G&T in hand, join us on a Discovery Tour and learn about Aberdeen’s lost distilling heritage, explore the distillery including the restricted production area, find out how you can make your own gin either at the distillery or at home, take part in a Q&A session with the head distiller and finally, enjoy a gin tasting from the range of true Aberdeen gins.

Itinerary

  • City of Aberdeen Distillery & Gin School

    With welcome drink in hand (double G&T), during this walking tour of the distillery you will learn all about Aberdeen's rich distilling heritage, how City of Aberdeen Distillery was established and uncover interesting facts about botanicals. The Head Distiller will guide you around the restricted areas of the distillery and talk about how Aberdeen Gin is made. This also includes a Q&A session. Enjoy samples of both London Dry and Fruit Gins from the range of small batch Scottish Gins - served directly from French glass demi-johns. There is also an opportunity to browse the distillery shop - if you've liked the gins you've sampled, why not treat yourself to a bottle of Aberdeen Gin from the range or even take home a 5-miniature tasting box. As the tour concludes, attendees are encouraged to explore the “botanical garden”.

Delicious and a tasty Gin

Published on May, 2025

Alan and Dan were very welcoming and worked well as a team…..great history of distilling over the centuries in Aberdeen and sharing their knowledge of gin making and botanicals. The gin tasting was delicious……thank you.

Discovery tour left us happy and a little more knowledgable about Gin

Went here a little while ago for the Discovery tour, can honestly say it was fantastic. Such a creative set up with the space and the experience itself was more than enjoyable. Would highly recomend taking a bottle home!

Alan and Dan were excellent and welcome hosts! We learned so much and had a great time! Truly would return back to Aberdeen just for another visit!

Brilliant experience - Highly recommend

Published on Oct, 2024

We arrived at the Distillery and got a very warm welcome from Dan. We also got a delicious double gin and tonic. For those who were driving, there was non alcoholic refreshments. A verbal tour of historical Aberdeen distilleries then a look through the premises and a lesson on how gin is made. All the while made incredibly interesting by Alan whose knowledge is simply awesome! Then a taste of all the different gins. My goodness me. What's not to love? A wonderful stock of great items to take home or to use as gifts at very reasonable prices. Thoroughly recommend.
