Food and Drink Experience Days: This gin bus tour of York is a must for any gin lover! On this in-depth, 5-hour private tour, you and your lucky guests will have the pleasure of touring Yorkshire’s premium distilleries. You’ll visit three artisan distilleries, learn about the process of making gin, and enjoy unique tastings at each location!Your tour begins at York station, where your guide will meet you in your ride for the day: the gin bus! Your first stop will be England’s only self-built whiskey and gin distillery. This innovative distillery prides itself on using 100% green energy, planting one square metre of woodland for every bottle sold. Their distilling process incorporates honey from their own beehives and locally-grown lavender, and you can enjoy sampling their gin as you tour their distillery. Next, you’ll travel in the gin bus to the next location: an independent micro-distillery producing premium, small-batch gin in the market town of Malton. You’ll witness the gin creation process in full, from creating flavours, to distillation, bottling and labelling. The highlight of this micro-distillery has to be the magnificent 300-litre copper sill from which the gin is produced. Of course, you’ll be treated to samples – don’t forget to try the ginger and rhubarb gin, a famous favourite among customers. Finally, you’ll journey to the last stop on the tour, an artisan gin company based out of Barmby Moor House in Pocklington; an elegant, historic place to end the tour! This gin bus tour of York makes the perfect Yorkshire day out with family, and would be the perfect experience gift for the gin-loving friend in your life.
