IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR VISITORS
LATE ARRIVAL – Our tours start promptly, if you arrive late we will do what we can to accommodate, but you may miss part of the tour.
ACCESSIBILITY – The tours and masterclasses are available for people with mobility issues by prior arrangement. Sensible footwear must be worn by visitors at all times.
PHOTOGRAPHY & FILMING – In the interests of safety, the use of mobile phones, cameras and other electrical equipment is prohibited in the production area; anyone refusing to comply with these rules will be asked to leave the tour.
(Please note photos we take may be used for marketing purposes, please let a member of the team know on the day you’re visiting us, if you don’t wish to be photographed.)
DOWN TIMES – We are a working distillery and so, for operational reasons, we cannot guarantee that all or any of our plant will be working at the time of your visit. However, you may be able to see into the still and mash tun, which isn’t possible when we are distilling.
HEALTH & SAFETY – Please remember that we are a food & drink manufacturer and as such must apply stringent checks across all areas of our business. Therefore, we ask that if you, or a member of your household, are unwell and/or suffering from any gastrointestinal or contagious illness on the day of your visit that you postpone your visit until a later date. This is to ensure that all of our products are manufactured in the safest way possible.
CHILDREN – Please note that, while children are welcome to visit the distillery, we are a commercial distillery, producing a product which is strictly, and legally, for adult consumption. We do, therefore, expect parents to use their judgement when considering visiting such a venue as we do not have any facilities to entertain children, and no visitors under the age of 14 are permitted to access our production area. Please note: 14-17 year olds don’t get tastings of alcoholic drinks, but we do have a delicious range of lemonades and pressés! Any children brought to the distillery must be supervised at all times and we reserve the right to ask them and their accompanying guardian to leave if they disrupt the experience of our other visitors. In summary, we do not allow unaccompanied children on the premises and we expect the accompanying adults to ensure their safety and well-being. This therefore ensures our due diligence in relation to safeguarding.
