Fun Afternoon
We visited for a tour on Friday, 29th May, 3 friends visiting Cork for the weekend. We had a fantastic time at Rebel City Distillery. The gin tasting experience was really personalised and made so much fun by the host, who was friendly, engaging, and full of energy throughout. It felt much more interactive and personal than a typical distillery tour, and you could really see the passion behind what they do. We had such a great laugh while also learning about the gin-making process and tasting some amazing spirits. Would definitely recommend this experience to anyone visiting Cork — a brilliant way to spend an afternoon. We visited Blackrock Castle restaurant the next day for dinner and Maharani gin was on the menu. We look forward to your gin being available on Tesco in the future.

We visited Blackrock Castle restaurant the next day for dinner and Maharani gin was on the menu, that was so lovely to see after our tour the previous day. We look forward to your gin being available at the popular supermarkets mainly Tesco 😉 (that’s where I tend to shop) in the future. Would definitely recommend this experience to anyone visiting Cork — a brilliant way to spend an afternoon. Thank you Rebel Distillery and good luck for the future!
Rebel City Fabulous
What a fantastic experience. I was so impressed with Rebel City. Their enthusiasm and love for their craft was infectious. The backstory, the set up, remarkable. Bhagya was amazing, she made everyone welcome and her knowledge was superb. Now let’s get to the gin, vodka, and absinthe. Well quite frankly gorgeous. I am an absinthe convert. As we are from the UK with no stored luggage so we couldn’t take the vodka and absinthe with us. However 2 bottles of gin were purchased dutifully at duty free. I will be purchasing more in the future from Amazon. However please can a national start stocking the vodka and absinthe. A campaign is surely required. Thank you for a wonderful experience. Best part of our trip to Cork.
Must go!!
