Meeting and pickup
Please arrive at Stirling Distillery and check in at the shop/reception on arrival. The distillery is located just below Stirling Castle on Lower Castlehill. We recommend arriving around 10 minutes before your experience is due to begin.
What to expect
Your guide starts in the working distillery, taking you from the botanicals (including wild Stirlingshire nettles foraged for our flagship gin) through to the copper still and the hand wax-sealed bottle. You'll hear how a local family firm brought legal distilling back to Stirling for the first time since 1852.
Then take a seat for a guided tasting of six Stirling gins and liqueurs, from our flagship Stirling Gin and navy-strength Battle Strength through to three gin liqueurs made with real fruit. Learn what each botanical brings to the glass, compare your favourites, and pick up simple tips for a better G&T at home.
Children are welcome and enjoy a mocktail while the adults taste.
Relaxed, personal and small in scale, it suits keen gin drinkers and the simply curious alike, and fits easily into a day exploring the castle and Stirling's Old Town.
