Meet Rupert. Hear our story.

Join founder Rupert Holloway for a candid insight into Conker — from our humble beginnings to the award-winning spirits we craft today.

Taste our full range of Dorset gins and cold brew coffee liqueurs, explore the ten botanicals behind Dorset Dry Gin, and see the art of distillation up close.

You’ll leave with stories to share and a new-found appreciation for what goes into every bottle.

Come for the craft. Stay for the company.

A working distillery, a guided tasting and a warm Dorset welcome.

“Great tour with generous pours! Rupert, the founder, made it especially engaging as he shared the story behind his local Dorset gins and coffee liqueurs.”
