The makers of York Gin has created a new distillery with its own gin school inside one of York’s finest city centre hotels.
Based at Middleton’s Hotel in Skeldergate, the new distillery will develop new spirits to complement the existing internationally-renowned York Gin range.
The boutique distillery will also offer lessons in gin tasting, will teach people how to make their very own unique gin, and host cocktail-making classes.
York Distillery officially opens on Friday April 4.
It adds to the other distillery within the city walls, Hooting Owl, based a short walk away in Rougier Street.
