Manly Spirits Gin making class is a unique, hands-on experience where you will make your very own, one-of-a-kind, bottle of gin to take home.

At Manly Spirits’ outstanding distilling laboratory for adults, ‘The Stillhouse’ located in Manly Spirits Distillery, you will take charge of a beautiful mini copper still to develop and distill your very own 700ml bottle of gin.

The experience starts with a ‘Manly Spirits Gin & Tonic’ at their unique distillery tasting bar inside Manly Spirits Co. Distillery.

With a drink in hand, it’s over to their Gin School laboratory ‘The Stillhouse’ where their distiller will explain the art of distillation and what it takes to produce a well-balanced and harmonious gin. Then the ‘magical alchemy’ will get underway on one of their 17 beautiful mini-copper stills.

You’ll start by choosing the ingredients from their extensive range of botanicals to create a unique gin recipe.

With step-by-step guidance through the fascinating distillation process, their distiller will explain how to produce a delicious hand-crafted gin.

Once the stills are running an education history of Gin with its fascinating and dark past to its present-day renaissance will be shared over a Manly Spirits Cocktail using Australian natives paired with an antipasto plate.

With the distillation process complete, it will be time to sample and name the unique creation, before bottling and applying a personalised label ready to take home in your giftbox.

Capturing the harmony between carefree beach life and urban sophistication for which Manly is renowned, their Founders David, Vanessa, and the Manly Spirits Co. team create Australian Gins, Botanical Vodkas and Whiskies that rival the best in the world taking much of their inspiration from the stunning surrounding marine environment of the New South Wales coastline.
