Omg what a great afternoon, a drink in hand while having a chat about how Anno started, then up to the tasting room. Absolutely fantastic tasting gins and great tips for mixers, we had such fun testing them, then down to the shop to purchase our favourites. Would love to go back and make my own bottle.

The gin blending experience was a birthday gift and it was extremely enjoyable. We got to create our own blend which we got to take home and can re-order. Brilliant!

Fantastic experience. Really interesting story of how Anno came about. Andrew was funny and down to earth and clearly passionate about his Gins! All the gins are amazingly flavoursome. Definitely something for everyone. Highly recommend the tasting tour with Anno. Mum had to sober up with a coffee after !

Sue and Ian delivered a excellent tour and information. We had a lot of fun blending our different botanical to create our own bottle of gin. Thank you for our goodies bags.

My friend & I booked ourselves onto the blending experience, its so worth the cost! We were greeted with a welcoming G&T, our group were very friendly and we enjoyed a short presentation informing us of the back ground story of Anno. Next came the blending, lots of tasting and tweaking was done then finally we had mixed our own bottle of gin, Ian our expert was fantastic! Both my friend & I will book again. Thank you Anno

Had an absolutely fantastic time here. First met Ian at the Bluewater store when I was working in the shopping center myself, had a great conversation about gin and other drinks, even ended up swapping some recommendations. Ended up taking my dad so the experience 4 years ago and loved it! Since moved jobs from the center (Anno now occupies the space my previous work was located, small world!), but have come back this time as a gift for my sister. Andy (the An in Anno) started the afternoon off with the history of the company before we got to the distlilling, and later on Ian showed up and took over once again! Had a great time catching up and both being surprised how long it had been since I first came into the shop all those years ago! Brilliant time, can't recommend more! Ask for Ian if you can, chap knows his stuff and really made the experience!

We were incredibly lucky to have a tour and tasting Saturday with Ian and Sam. A truly fantastic experience going over the history of Gin, talking through the process and then an amazing tasting of 5 gins and a vodka - all for £30! It was finished off with a trip to the shop for a few purchases! I can't recommend a visit to this brilliant local firm enough. You will not be disappointed!

I am not a fan of gin! However, it was a birthday gift for my wife - who LOVES gin! So, the opportunity to blend and create our own gin was most welcome by my wife. The experience commenced with being greeted by Ian; a very knowledgeable and friendly chap, who presented us with a rather large Anno gin and tonic - to get the ball rolling - and kept our group of 8 entertained for over 3 hours. Please be aware each botanical that you taste is at least 40% proof. Something I wasn't aware of initially! We tasted over 25 different botanicals! lol, which may have influenced us, ever so slightly, when shopping afterwards! We didn't realise that the experience included blending our own individual gin, and taking our personal blend, with our own label name and design, home with us. Our 'take away' package also included free Anno gin bowls and tonics, plus a free Anno Distillery cloth bag. Ollie, also a very knowledgeable, friendly and helpful guy, assisted Ian throughout the afternoon, helping us with our blends and also with our shopping experience afterwards. The whole experience was fun and great value for money. My wife absolutely loved it, especially as she came away with both personalised bottles of gin! Plus a bottle of Anno Rum and a bottle of B3rry pink gin, purchased at the shop. Yum! She says. We would recommend this trip highly to anyone who likes gin and even some who don't!

Absolutely fantastic experience. Ian and Ollie were great and shared lots of facts and knowledge around their gin. Bought my mum and myself the experience for Christmas. My mum loved it and is already planning another visit! The tasting and mixing session was brilliant and the guys supported us in creating our own flavours which we mixed, bottled and labelled. Finished off in the shop where we managed to buy a fair few Christmas presents! Winning! Thank you very much! Xx

Absolutely Brilliant team building experience. 100% Recommend. Ian from Anno started the evening giving us a Gin and tonic. He obviously loves what he does and it shows. We learnt about the History of Anno. How they make Gin and we even each got to make our very own unique bottle to take home. Fantastic Value I want to do it again. I love the Gin I made and I am not even a Gin fan. You can also buy Gin while.you are there.
