Fell in love with Persie gin after picking some up at Crufts (because who can resist a gin named after dogs?!) and eventually made it up to visit them in Scotland recently. It's a small, family-run di... See more

Gin tasting at Persie Distillery

We were a small group of 3 that attended a gin tasting at Persie Distillery joining another group if 2. Chrissie was so informative about our tasting gins. Talked to us all about our tastes and suggested the best mixers so we would get the best out of our tasting. We all found gins we liked having not tried them before or even thought about trying. The tour of the still and bottling area was informative and amazed us all that so many great gins are made in a small compact area. Well worth a visit and booking on to a gin tasting.

Great place to visit

Lovely place to visit, made very welcome from the opening of the door. With the gin you get a card explaining about the gin and what's best to mix with it which was good. It was a great experience.

I have nothing but praise for the Persie team

I have nothing but praise for the team at Persie, and there are a great team. Everyone involved with our visit was friendly, knowledgeable and easy to chat to. I had experienced a tasting of their range of gins before but it was so much more enjoyable to do so this time with my partner. We were able to do this because we were picked up from our accommodation and returned, in a pleasantly over the limit state afterwards, so neither of us had to drive. Chrissie went above and beyond to help us find local accommodation for us and our dogs, don't know about children but dogs are genuinely welcome . And then there's the gin! A guided tasting with different mixers and garnishes of their gins. My other half has always claimed to be ,'not a gin drinker' but he found his tipple in a Sweet and Nutty Old Tom gin with ginger ale.And then there's your of the operations which is illuminating. This is truly 'craft' gin, such care and attention to detail at every stage of the process and everything is so transparent. Thoroughly enjoyed our visit and would recommend to gin drinkers and those who think they aren't .

Very friendly

Very friendly, relaxed atmosphere. Detailed, interesting descriptions of the gins. Never felt rushed and nothing was too much trouble. Our driver and our accompanying dog were both included in the experience. When visiting Phil the Still, Simon gave a very full explanation which was mostly understood. There was no pressure to buy bottles but we did!

Gintastic :)

Really good afternoon with superfriendly owner, Chrissie. Lovely gins, mixers and garnishes - learnt a lot and bought some new gin experiences too!! Only slight disappointment was that the tour was meant to be 30-40 minutes; we booked a taxi on the hour but could easily have spent another 45 mins sampling gin. A lovely way to spend an afternoon :)

Gin sorry gem of a day!!

Got this gin tasting as a present. Persie organised the taxi, distillery is a bit out of Blairgowrie, which was great.
Tried about 8 different Gins and a Vodka with mixers, nothing too much trouble.
Really friendly, informative and fun. Staff were great, would definitely recommend as this is a small batch producer.
Great couple of hours out.

Wow, great fun, you should try it.

Wow, did not realise you could have this much fun in a car park in daylight. We were welcomed in by Chrissie (who is the most fun and knowledgeable person you will meet all week). We were then given 6 tasting gins with a selection of mixers and Chrissie explained how to taste them with the selection of mixers and different fruits. We then went outside and were given more tasters and bought a couple ourselves. I would recommend this to everyone. Just great grown up fun.
