"Become an expert in the creation of the West Country’s best-known gin"
Overview
Located in the city’s Barbican quarter, Plymouth Gin has been a local landmark since 1793. Three tours are on offer; the distillery tour explores distillation and offers the chance to distill your own gin; the connoisseur’s tour explores botanicals and their different effects; and the quicker general tour covers history, distillation and botanicals but in less depth than the others.

About the area
Devon sums up all that is best about the British landscape, with its magnificent coastlines, two historic cities, the world-famous Dartmoor National Park and south Devon’s glorious English Riviera. A fashionable and much-loved holiday destination, hiking and cycling in the National Parks is extremely popular among visitors, with a great choice of off-road routes.
