Welcome to the home of Plymouth Gin. Our craft began way back in 1793, and we’ve been here ever since. And when you’ve been making gin this long, you forget how to do it wrong.
The Black Friar’s building dates back to the early 1400s.The most intact part of the distillery is the Refectory Room, a medieval hall with a fine hull-shaped timber roof built in 1431. It’s one of the oldest buildings in Plymouth, and protected as a precious national monument. Not least because it’s now also an important centre of excellence for gin cocktail making.
