Artisan spirits brand 6 O’clock Gin, is thrilled to announce the purchase and re-launch of the iconic Glassboat as an exciting new retail, bar and events space in central Bristol. With a loyal following across the city and surrounding areas, the brand is eager to bring the taste of 6 O’clock Gin to the heart of Bristol, offering a greater opportunity for residents and visitors alike to sample their gins and participate in immersive experiences.
Located at a picturesque waterside location, the reimagined Glassboat will provide guests with a stunning setting to enjoy a selection of delicious G&Ts and 6 O’clock Gin cocktails. Whether relaxing by the water or purchasing a bottle (or two) to take away for themselves, family, or friends, visitors can expect a memorable and elevated gin experience. Furthermore, the Glassboat will host a variety of upcoming events, including gin tastings, cocktail masterclasses, and gin blending experiences, where attendees can get more hands-on and delve deeper into the world of 6 O’clock Gin.
Paul Sullivan MD of 6 O’clock Gin commented. “We are absolutely thrilled to have purchased the Glassboat, our plan is to retain as many original features as possible while breathing new life into this historic site. The re-launch of the Glassboat marks a significant milestone for us as we are able to bring our 6 O’clock Gin experiences right into the heart of the city.”
Much like the iconic blue bottle that pays tribute to Bristol’s rich heritage, the Glassboat represents the perfect showcase for 6 O’clock Gin. Its established status as a must-visit destination combined with the brand’s commitment to exceptional quality and craftsmanship will undoubtedly create a unique and unforgettable experience for all aboard. The re-opening of the Glassboat is scheduled for later this Summer 2023.
