Better living through chemistry.
Very cool experience. Fun to select the various botanical inclusions and taste and smell the product developing throughout the process. The drinks and charcuterie along the were also very nice. I would recommend doing this with a friend or group so you can share the tasting of your separate creations together in the future. I will recommend to friends. I have recommendations for improvement, but it was well worth the $130 for the 2.5 hr experience.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed creating your gin and exploring the flavors and aromas throughout the process. It’s also great to know you liked the drinks and charcuterie—we love curating those details to make the class even more special. Thanks again for joining us, and we hope to see you back soon! Cheers!

Highly recommend!!
We had a really great time at the gin class! The class has a max of 6 spots each session so it feels cozy and fun. There were a ton of botanicals to choose from. I was worried I'd get stuck with all my choices, but Chris was awesome and helped me figure out what to add to get the flavor profile I wanted. Everyone in the class made really different choices, and it was fun to see how it came out for each combination. Since you get to customize, you don't even need to be a big fan of the taste of "traditional" gin to enjoy yourself and make something you will enjoy! As we were distilling, we got to drink gin and tonics (made with their in-house gin offerings-- super good) and have some snacks, too! We also learned some fun gin history and science. Overall it was an amazing time. Everyone was so friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. I'm already planning on bringing family when they next come in to town. Super highly recommend if you're looking for a fun activity.

Why this scores 46
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Distill Your Own Gin In Our Private Hands-on Class: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Salt Lake City.
How much does Distill Your Own Gin In Our Private Hands-on Class cost?
+
Prices start at $130 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Salt Lake City usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Distill Your Own Gin In Our Private Hands-on Class take?
+
Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Salt Lake City is not rushed.
Is Distill Your Own Gin In Our Private Hands-on Class worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 46 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Salt Lake City, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Distill Your Own Gin In Our Private Hands-on Class?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Distill Your Own Gin In Our Private Hands-on Class suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Distill Your Own Gin In Our Private Hands-on Class?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Salt Lake City can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Salt Lake City and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Distill Your Own Gin In Our Private Hands-on Class start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Salt Lake City within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Salt Lake City?
+
Salt Lake City is a basecamp: Big and Little Cottonwood canyon hikes and ski shuttles, Antelope Island and Great Salt Lake trips, Park City transfers and Temple Square walking tours. Winter transfer reliability is the single biggest quality signal here. On Outty we rank every Salt Lake City experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Salt Lake City Guided Bus Tour, Tabernacle Choir at Temple Square & Salt Lake City Bus Tour, Great Salt Lake Safari - Discover Antelope Island. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Salt Lake City?
+
December to March for skiing, June to September for canyon hiking. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Salt Lake City?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
