GUIDED DISTILLERY TOUR
Experience Cooper King Distillery in person by joining a guided distillery tour - simply complete the booking process below (over 18’s only). Alternatively purchase a distillery tour voucher as a gift or enjoy a Home Tasting Experience.
Join us for a guided tour of England's only self-built whisky and gin distillery, situated in the picturesque countryside, 10 miles north of York.
Discover the adventurous story behind the distillery and understand how our sustainable spirits are made. We'll introduce you to state-of-the-art vacuum gin distillation and the wonderful Tasmanian copper whisky still - the only one of its kind in the Northern Hemisphere.
Finally, enjoy a fully guided tasting session, where you’ll try at least 6 different spirits. Drivers will be offered a complimentary sample to take away and enjoy at home.
You can find a location map here and the onsite Airbnb here.
