VISIT OUR ON-SITE SHOP & TASTING ROOM
…to immerse yourself in the world of The House of Botanicals Gins, Dr. Adam’s Cocktail Bitters, and Pietro Nicola Aperitivi & Digestivo
THE HOUSE OF BOTANICALS
Situated underneath Aberdeen’s railway line and next door to its largest shopping centre, Union Square, The House of Botanicals is a 2500 square foot unit which is a combination of gin distillery, liqueurist, bitters manufactory, tasting room and shop.
Housed in the historic railway arches on Palmerston Road and originally opened in October 2016 solely as our production premises and bonded warehouse, the site is now open for distillery tours & tastings.
THE LIBRARY
A boardroom, presentation room and tasting room, The Library at the House of Botanicals is home to our founder’s private collection of drinks literature and botanical based beverages; with hundred of books and an enviable collection of gins, bitters, fortified wines, amari, liqueurs, beers, and everything else in between, in residence.
The Library is an open space for bartenders to immerse themselves in all things botanical, to read, drink and learn in comfortable surroundings, while consumers are welcomed to join Adam Elan-Elmegirab and friends from the drinks industry in a variety of tutored tasting sessions coupled with a tour of our production floor.
TOURS & TASTINGS
Opened to the public in the January of 2020, The Library at The House of Botanicals is the central hub for our exclusive Tour & Tasting experiences.
