AN ELLESMERE-based distillery has targeted a new audience – hen parties!

The Shropshire Distillery, in Eastwick Lane, is offering to transform its custom-built distillery into a hen party destination, where they can have fun crafting their own gins.

Bespoke gin can be created during a hen party or as a pre-wedding activity for the betrothed couple, which can then be served at their wedding or produced in miniature bottles as party favours for the big day.

The distillery is run by husband-and-wife team, Emma and Gareth Glynn, whose shared love of gin was the inspiration to launch the business four years ago.

Emma said: “Our gin school has been going strong since it opened last year.

"We’ve been inundated with happy gin students, and are proud to be five-star rated.

"We would love to start welcoming hen parties or stag dos, looking to do something memorable to celebrate the occasion.

“They can have exclusive access to the distillery where they can learn about the history of gin, have fun creating their own spirits, while sampling some tasty tipples.

“Or newly-engaged couples can come along together to create a gin, which can then be served at their wedding and we can produce custom gin miniature bottles to be given as party favours.

“There’s something really special about creating a totally unique gin for one of the most important days of your lives. We store each recipe on file to be ordered again for future gifts and wedding anniversaries!”
