Join us for an immersive, hands-on workshop run by Kensington Oil Distillery, where you’ll explore the art of small-batch essential oil distillation. Using a high-quality, in-house designed copper still, you’ll learn how plant material is transformed into fragrant hydrosol and essential oil, capturing the unique essence of the plant, the season, and the garden it comes from.

Participants will be guided through the full distillation process, including preparing plant material, understanding how a still works, conducting a distillation, and separating oil from water. We’ll also cover essential care and cleaning practices to keep a still in top condition.

✨ You’ll take home:

• A sample of your own distilled product

• A list of commonly distilled plants

• DIY skincare recipes for continued exploration

Perfect for beginners and enthusiasts alike, this workshop offers a rare opportunity to deepen your understanding of essential oils and their practical applications
