Your tour begins with a welcome drink, a refreshing gin and tonic, made with your signature gin, Nostalgin. Nostalgin celebrates the strong emotional connection and nostalgia Millport holds in so many people’s hearts, especially those who spent their childhood summers on the island in the 50’s and 60’s. The main botanicals of lavender, bramble and orange combine to capture the feeling of relaxation and calm that people experience on the 8-minute ferry ride to the island. During your one-hour tour, you will be told about your story; how 5 strangers met in a bar and ended up opening a gin distillery on a small Scottish island. You will be introduced to the history of distilling, which is packed with interesting facts and colourful characters. During your time together you will also be told about the fascinating history of Millport and its important role in the smuggling history of the Clyde. Your tour concludes with a sample of your other 3 Millport gins.
