What better way to celebrate your nuptials than with your very own bespoke spirits, created by you and the one you love ready for your wedding day.
Salcombe Distilling Co., through their award-winning Salcombe Gin School and newly launched Salcombe Rum School, offer the opportunity for engaged couples to craft their very own unique spirit during a Salcombe Gin or Rum School lesson. From seasonal flavors to clever naming conventions, your chosen drink is guaranteed to add a unique layer of personalisation to your big day.
First, create your bespoke drink..
Guests to Salcombe Gin School or Salcombe Rum School take charge of a beautiful mini copper pot still to develop and distil their very own 70cl bottle of gin or rum at Salcombe Distilling Co.’s award-winning waterside distillery in Salcombe. They can create their own recipe by choosing from an extensive range of botanicals supplied or get imaginative and experiment by bringing their own. During distillation, visitors will sample and name their unique creation before bottling their chosen drink and placing it in a presentation box with a personalised bottle label.
A Gin School lesson is three hours long and are typically available on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday afternoons at 2.00pm and Saturday mornings at 10.00am. Salcombe Rum School runs every Thursday from 2pm-5pm. A Gin or Rum School lesson for two people sharing a still is £160.
Now, let’s get wedding ready..
Ready for your special day, Salcombe Distilling Co. offers a service to distil more of your bespoke gin or rum. Former guests of the schools simply visit salcombegin.com and fill out an online form listing their chosen botanicals and quantities noted from their previous Salcombe School visit. Salcombe Distilling Co.’s team of expert distillers then re-create two 70cl bottles of gin or rum (from £95). Higher quantities are available upon request.
