About our Masterclass
Take part in our Gin Masterclass at The Distillery where our friendly bartenders love to explain the sensations, nuances and subtleties of the tonics, fusions and fruits we use across our gin menu. The Masterclass starts with the tasting of four very different gins each paired with complimentary tonics whilst our bartenders explain the history and heritage of Gin, where and how it all began and the use of Gin before it became famous for the classic Gin & Tonic combination.
About The Distillery Bankside
The Distillery Bankside is located on the site of the old Stevenson & Howell fragrance factory, which distilled essential oils and manufactured essences, flavourings and garnishes during the 1800s. The name of the bar was inspired by scientific techniques of extraction and reduction used in gin production methods, which they also used in the old essence factory. Inspired by this local history, the bar has become an alchemist’s laboratory of sensations mixing signature cocktails using homemade aromatics, infusions and bitters to accent drinks, as well as keeping stock of over 50 hand-picked gins, from fine old classics from every point of the compass, to new age gins from artisan distilleries springing up all over Bankside, Southwark and Bermondsey.
