Join OUTrips for a day about all things GIN

You’ll be hosted by a Gin Expert to create and enjoy two Bombay Sapphire cocktails in a fun and informative masterclass (and sample a third!). The Gin Cocktail Masterclass is an interactive session on cocktail culture where you can learn the tricks of the bar trade by creating two cocktails, so that you can create your own cocktails easily at home! 

Then, explore the Bombay Sapphire Distillery with a distillery host to guide you as you discover the ten exotic botanicals infused into every drop of Bombay Sapphire Gin in the Glasshouses, with an insight into Heatherwick Studios’ inspired design.

Your experience begins with a trip to the Turbine Bar where you can choose from three Bombay gins to make your own complimentary gin & tonic using their self-serve gin dispensers, before heading to the Cinema Room to be immersed in all things Bombay Sapphire in preparation for your tour.

Your host will help you navigate the Botanical Dry Room; a sensory experience to uncover your flavour preferences, and you’ll learn about the rare vapour infusion distillation process which makes Bombay Sapphire gin so exquisite.
