Father's Day Craft Gin Distilling Workshop with The Distillers Union

Sun Jun 20, 10:00 - Sun Jun 20, 12:00

Studio Jade

ABOUT

Hosted at the spacious Soute Studio, Salt River (home of Food Jams), we meet the Distillers Union Team (founders of 5 Pence Gin, Woodstock Gin & Fiery Dragon Ginger Beer).


Touch, taste and smell locally foraged botanicals & spices, and mull over your own favourite gin flavours. We'll talk you through a variety of flavourings and guide you in your selection of ingredients to create your personal recipe.


Our copper distillery stations fit two people, each with its own miniature copper still. As your gin drips gently through the still, there's time to relax and enjoy a cup and plate of something with your fellow alchemists before blending, measuring and bottling your individually crafted gin.


The resulting bottle of gin will be yours to name, take home and generally show off about. Sharing is, of course, up to you. The workshop comes highly recommended as a gift to a loved one.


What is included:


a gin distilling information booklet

a personalized 500ml bottle for each guest to take home

beverages (alcoholic & non-alcoholic) & pintxos (individual tapas)


What Guests Say:


"I got this experience for my dad for Father’s Day and couldn’t go myself. This is the review from my parents: We were initially reluctant to attend this Gin tasting as we were extremely exhausted. To our surprise, this turned out to be the highlight of our Cape Town weekend. Our guide, Roy, quickly took us through the history of the gin-making and we were then served amazing cocktails with their own gins and rum. Afterwards, we actually made our own bottles of gin! What an amazing experience. We’d highly recommend the Workshop and to anyone wishing to experience gin making." - Tshepang


"This is an absolute must for anybody, whether a tourist or an RSA local. Such a fantastic experience with having a lot of fun ( and seriously good GIN ). We will definitely be taking more friends on this." - Dylan
