The Distillery
Our stills, our Gin School and our bar, all under one roof in a restored 16th century warehouse just off King Street.
Norfolk water & botanicals
Distilled in the heart of Norfolk
Every bottle of WhataHoot starts with distilled Norfolk water and a carefully chosen blend of botanicals, over 30 of them are available to play with in the Gin School. Our Signature Dry Gin uses Norfolk samphire and lavender; other recipes lean into orange, raspberry, pink peppercorn or sloe. Each spirit is distilled, tasted and bottled on site, by the same family team who founded WhataHoot.
- Distilled with Norfolk water, on site at King Street
- Over 30 botanicals used across the WhataHoot range
