County Down Gin Experience

County Down saw some of the first distilleries to take advantage of the trend to craft gin and has grown ever since. With 6 distilleries distilling 8 unique brands there is something to suit everybody’s taste. We are pleased to offer you an opportunity to find out which one suits you the best with our unique County Down Gin Experience.

Arrive into Bangor and park in the Eisenhower car park, just across the road from The Salty Dog. Check in to your sea view room, unpack and unwind. We will then arrange for a taxi to take you just down the coast to Copeland Distillery in Donaghadee where you will have a tour and a tasting of their unique spirits. Return by taxi to the hotel where you will have a tutored tasting of gins from all the other County Down distilleries: Echlinville, Weavers and Jawbox from the Echlinville Distillery, Shortcross from the Rademon Estate, Mourne Dew, Killowen and Ninth Wave from the Hinch Distillery, all served with mixers from County Down’s own Longbridge Drinks Co.

After your tastings you can enjoy a three-course dinner and then a great night’s sleep, waking up to views over Belfast Lough and the Irish Sea and the prospect of an award-winning breakfast. When you are ready to leave the comforts of The Salty Dog you can add an optional tour at Rademon Estate or Echlinville to complete your education into County Down’s Gins.
