GIN AND TONIC EXPERIENCE
You will immerse yourself into the wonderful world of gin. We will guide you through the botanical plants and spices which are used to create gin. We will then invite you to fashion your own two gin creations to sip, sit back and relax with.

 

FRAGRANCE EXPERIENCE
Our Fragrance Experience is the ultimate way to relax, rewind and reward your special occasion. Perfumery is the art of blending fragrant botanical essential oils to create a perfume designed especially for you. This is the perfect way to celebrate special occasions such as wedding, product launches, birthdays, hens’ parties or family-get-togethers – all with a unique and natural twist. You will take your fragrance home with you.

LOCATIONS
The Botanical Distillery is happy to partner with our favourite Waiheke destinations. 

BATCH WINERY
Batch Winery’s signature platters contain cured meats, smoked salmon, seasonal salads, olives, dips and breads to enjoy at your leisure at Batch Winery meaning you can linger and enjoy the views from the Coromandel Peninsula, the Hauraki Gulft and The Sky Tower in Auckland.

Linger longer and choose to enjoy Batch Winery’s wine tasting and have fun with their lawn games while deciding on which beach, cafe or other tourism ventures await your day on Waiheke Island before your leisurely cruise back across the Hauraki Gulf. Please contact our team for more ideas.

“Just a quick email to say that the Gin and Tonic Open Event was AMAZING. The whole hens’ party was buzzing from it and it made my sister so happy!

Thoroughly enjoyed it, you guys are fantastic!” 🙂 Emma, Head Hen

“We had such a great time! Thank you and the team so much. It was a lot of fun and we all enjoyed it.

I will be recommending it to others and can’t wait to come back some time and do it again.” 😊
