18.01.2022 WERE BACK JUNE 4TH! Hey gin fam...its been a while since we have been able to talk about opening the venue but now the time has finally come, we are back on June 4th! While it will be different for a little while we absolutely cannot wait to have your happy faces back, sitting with us in the bar! ... Firstly, we can only allow a certain amount of people in the venue at one time and therefore have decided that group bookings of up to 10 people only are allowed. Please call us for further information on this. We also suggest booking ahead of your visit to secure a table at the distillery as walk ins will be asked to wait outside if necessary! As the venue will be open for dining again, we are now closing the bottle shop. However...we are adding an additional day to our trading hours. The distillery will now be open from Thursday Monday for all you long weekenders! Were so excited to see you all again super soon!

17.01.2022 Meet the makers By now you probably all know this smiley face but just incase you missed him, meet our distillery dad, Steve and his trusty companion, Doug (the work horses of Ambleside). Steve gives us the run down on how he likes to enjoy his favourite Gin....Small Acre Gin, of course.... He's come pretty far from being the gardner to being head distiller now, hey?

17.01.2022 The guys at Roxies take us through their specially curated cocktail, The Amberside.

10.01.2022 To make this bangin' citrus gin we peeled each mandarin and added the flesh to the botanical basket. Once distilled, all the left over peel was chucked into the gin to steep for 7 days. Giving the gin a light, buttery colour and a beautiful mandarin aroma that will have you wanting more. https://www.amblesidedistillers.com/mandarin-gin

09.01.2022 If it doesnt have juniper, it isnt Gin! We think utilising juniper in unique ways for each of our gins to emphasise different flavour profiles is a great way to show off all of the juniper goodness this powerful little berry has to offer. www.amblesidedistillers.com
