GIN & RUM SCHOOL

GIN & RUM DISTILLING EXPERIENCES

Gin and Rum School experiences in the Scottish Highlands

Visit our distillery near Fort William and Glencoe and distil your very own bottle of gin or rum! All classes are run by Craig, our Master Distiller, who will teach you everything about the distilling process, and recipe development, helping you to create a perfect spirit! 

Perfect indoor activities in the Highlands, afternoon of fun and learning with your own bottle of gin or rum to take home to enjoy!

“Really amazing tour and gin-making class. WAY more interesting and educational than the average distillery tour. While Pixel Spirits is quite small – the personal, intimate, hands-on tour was far superior to large distillery offerings. Can’t recommend it enough!”
