A reimagined sensory experience is bringing visitors even closer to the world of gin.
The Bombay Sapphire Distillery, in Laverstoke, has unveiled a newly upgraded Botanical Room that celebrates the brand’s signature botanicals through immersive storytelling and design.
The refresh is part of ongoing investment in the visitor experience, which has also seen the addition of a cinema room in 2022, an expanded cafe menu, and a gin tasting flight bolt-on experience.

Alessandro Garneri, master of botanicals at Bombay Sapphire, said: “Our botanicals are the jewels of Bombay Sapphire.
"Each one of the 10 ingredients is sourced from certified sustainable suppliers and handled with the utmost respect, reflecting not only their natural beauty but also the communities and landscapes from which they come.
"The new Botanical Room allows us to share that story in a way that truly connects people with the essence of our gin”.
The tour begins with a welcome from Mr Garneri before guests are guided through the story of each botanical.
Visitors then move to the still room to learn about the distillery’s vapour infusion techniques and finish the tour with a tailored cocktail at the Mill Bar.
Other experiences at Laverstoke Mill include cocktail masterclasses, cinema nights, and locally sourced refreshments at the Mill Café.
