Upon arrival you will be greeted by your ‘teacher’ for the day. After a quick meet and greet you will ready your taste buds with our gin tasting session where you will learn about our range of award winning gins and the flavour profiles you want to achieve in your finished bottle!

Next we will go on a botanical journey through flavours and what profiles your are each give in distillation. With an array of exotic, dried, locally sourced and freshly harvested botanicals from right here on our farm, you may surprise yourself in your choices…

We will next learn how our stills Ivy & Kin work their magic and we may even let you in to a few secrets…

This will give you the knowledge to then move over to the work shop bar and be the master of your very own still. Weighing out your chosen botanicals and immersing yourself in the aromas as your chosen blends start to steep.

A quick Lancashire break whilst the botanicals really get to know each other and flavours start to marry. In this time you will enjoy a fresh local cheese grazing board and create your own label design & write your own ‘gin story’, an important part of all new recipe development.

Then the part you’ve been awaiting! Distillation time, be in full control as your signature recipe unfolds, crucial taste testing at each stage is a must!

You will then cut and bottle your Gin down to your desired strength and label your new perfect tipple ready to be placed at the top of your home gin shelf!

Don’t just take our word for it!

*****
Went here on 11/02/23, what a fantastic time we had. Made exceptionally welcome by Lizzie. She was knowledgeable ,great fun and fabulous host, Rob gave us an insight in to the production and process of distilling gin. They really know their stuff and masters of their craft! We made our own gin , chatted the afternoon away in very relaxed surroundings. I have to say I was never a big gin fan before my experience but left knowing more about it and a greater appreciation for it, I think because every other gin I had tried isn’t anything like Wild Fox 🦊 it’s just gorgeous!! Thank you Lizzie and Rob for an AMAZING time we will definitely be back! I would recommend that anyone with an interest in Gin should give this a go , big thumbs up from us Dean and Yvonne Holden, South Yorkshire 
Amazing Master Distiller Experience. We attended a master distiller day with Lizzie at Wild Fox Distillery, it was brilliant and I will definitely be back! We both got to pick out our choice of botanicals, weigh them and distill our own gin. We also learnt about the history of gin and the history of Wild Fox gin and distillery. The distillery makes the most of it’s beautiful surroundings being based on Lower Barker Farm. I’d highly recommend this experience to anyone as it was the most fun we’ve had in a long time! Lizzie is lovely and very knowledgeable and helpful in picking out botanicals for your gin. You also get to name your creation and design a label for it which is really fun! – Rebecca Dunnings
