Best Places to go Gin Tasting York. We don’t have lots of gin tasting classes in York, but the ones we do have are very good! I have reviewed three of these below.
Gin Tasting at York Distillery with York Gin
Middletons Hotel, Cromwell Rd, York YO1 6DS
York Gin offer fabulous gin tastings at their dedicated York Distillery in the grounds of Middletons Hotel on Skeldergate. It’s a lively and sociable session where you learn all about the history of York Gin’s six types of gin and get to try each one! The session starts with a welcome drink and ends with a full size G&T with the gin of your choice.

Chocolate and Gin Tasting at York’s Chocolate Story
The Chocolate and Gin Tasting Tour at York’s Chocolate Story combines (most of) the regular classic tour with the addition of gin and chocolate pairings. The gin is from Hooting Owl who have a fabulous bar on Rougier Street where you can do more gin tasting if you would like.

Tank And Paddle
Merchant Exchange, Bridge St, York YO1 6DD
Homed in a former merchants building in the heart of York, The Tank and Paddle is a cool vintage styled craft beer joint. “While retaining the original industrial charm of the building we have created a new balcony that is a real sun trap for those summer days and nights.
We also offer a wide range of gins that include regional favourites, Yorkshire Dales Distillery alongside classic blends like Slingsby. Customers will also have the opportunity to experience Gin masterclasses, learning all there is to know about the spirit, how to select the right garnishes and how to recreate their favourite tipples.”
Gin Tasting at The Hooting Owl
The Hooting Owl run two gin tours, a shorter one during the day and a longer full tour in the evening. We recently tried out the daytime tour. It’s fun, lighthearted and entertaining (and there will be plenty of gin, so you will be very merry afterwards!).
