You’ll discover and explore in detail, how we make our award-winning vodka, gin, and whisky in our beautiful copper stills. You also get some of the best views in Southwold from our panoramic distillery windows, so don’t forget your camera. Each tour is followed by a tasting showcasing our spirits range, including a selection of our best-loved brands, and any current seasonal releases available at the time of your visit.
This fun and informative experience lasts approximately 1.5 hours. At the end of your experience, you will receive a voucher for our Southwold store, to claim a free memento of your day.
Our tours have been awarded the Tripadvisor Certificate of Excellence and have also made the Tripadvisor Hall of Fame for consistently good reviews.
Useful Information Before Booking:
This experience is suitable for those aged 18 or over.
Adnams Distillery Tours are unfortunately unsuitable for visitors in a wheelchair and a challenge for those with reduced mobility. Our distillery is located on the top floor of our old brewery building and the tour route involves many stairs. If you would like to know more, please call 01502 727225 or email us for advice before booking.
Adnams Tours are subject to a minimum attendance policy. Should this affect your booking, we will contact you directly and will always endeavour to move you to an alternative and viable tour where possible.
Due to the current situation we are maintaining social distancing and face coverings are optional indoors. We may also be required to move through certain areas more quickly due to operational constraints.
We do not usually distil at weekends. If you wish to see the distillery during operational hours, we recommend a visit in the week. Weekend tours are still great fun, but the distillery is likely to be quieter.
A soft drink or low-alcohol option is available for those not drinking on the day. Please contact us if you have any specific dietary requirements you wish to discuss.
Useful information before attending your tour (please share with your party):
All visitors entering our site must wear fully enclosed shoes that cover both toes and heels; no flip flops or sandals are allowed. Please avoid high or pointed heels, as there are slatted metal staircases to negotiate.
All visitors are supplied with a high visibility vest to wear for the duration of their tour.
We are asking guests to bring their own face covering to wear during the tour.
