Outer Hebrides Wildlife Festival - thank the bees for our G&T's
Join us at our Nunton Steadings Visitor Centre to celebrate this years Outer Hebrides Wildlife Festival with a special gin tasting experience.
You will enjoy a guided tour of the production hall, visitor centre and cask room and meet our friendly distillery team.
We will then take you through to our tasting room, where you can enjoy a perfect serve of our award winning gin range.
Our Gin ambassadors will guide you through our Downpour Gin, botanicals, the distillation process, recipe development, our distillery and island life.
We’ll be joined at this very special event by Katy Malone from the Bumblebee Conservation Trust, who will explain about the essential role that bumblebees play in pollinating the botanicals that go into our gin. Find out more about the lifecycle of these small but mighty pollinators, and how you can help them thrive on the islands.
