Spirit School
Overview
Our Spirit School is the ultimate distilling experience - a hands-on experience where you become head distiller and craft a bespoke Gin or Rum. Tailored for those passionate about spirits, you'll run your own miniature still, explore flavour development through guided 'cuts', and leave with a deeper understanding of distillation. Take home your creation in a 500ml ceramic bottle you name and label!
Choose Your Experience
GIN SCHOOL
Explore a curated library of botanicals from around the world and discover how to balance flavour, aroma and texture to craft your own signature gin, guided by our experts.
RUM LAB
Discover the craft of rum-making, from fermentation to blending and spicing. Create new-make spirit using your own still, then experiment with our flavour library to create a unique spiced rum blend. You'll also contribute to our Solera system and experience Earp Distillery's live-ageing process.
Twin Tickets allow two participants to share a still, while Triple Tickets accommodate three. Each participant receives their own 500ml bottle. All participants must choose the same spirit: gin or rum. A minimum number of participants is required for the class to proceed. If rescheduling is necessary due to insufficient bookings, we'll notify you well in advance.
