Andreas S. from Riehen
The gin workshop at GIN LAB. Basel in the distillery was an outstanding experience. I was deeply impressed by the team’s expertise and enthusiasm. The gin tasting, with its wide variety of flavor profiles, was a particular highlight. I recommend this workshop to anyone who wants to deepen their passion for gin.

Alexander T. from Rotterdam
During the workshop at the distillery, I not only immersed myself in the world of gin, but also created my own gin—a dream come true! Under expert guidance, I experimented with various botanicals to develop a gin recipe that is truly my own. This experience, from the initial idea to the completion of my own gin, was exciting and fulfilling. I recommend this workshop to anyone who wants to delve deeper into the art of gin-making and leave their own signature.

Mia K. from Basel
The gin masterclass at GIN LAB—a brilliant birthday gift from my friends—was a fascinating experience. Standing right next to the stills, we learned the intricacies of gin production—it was both impressive and educational. The historical insights into the world of gin and distilling, along with the tasting that followed, made the day a truly unique experience. Highly recommended for any gin enthusiast!
GIN LAB. in the Aktienmühle distillery
Our distillery has found the perfect home in the historic Aktienmühle, which has been lovingly restored. The grain that was once processed in the mill now serves as the basis for our gin. We use a modern Holstein still and a pot still for traditional distillation, combined with a modern Büchi Rotavapor for vacuum distillation, to create high-quality products such as Gin de Bale and Gentleman’s Gin, as well as other spirits and liqueurs. At the GIN LAB, visitors can experience the distillation process firsthand and create their own gin—ideal for workshops or special occasions. We also develop custom recipes for individual products or corporate gifts, such as for an anniversary, and are flexible in producing both small and large batches.
