This place was fantastic!!! The owner Ali and the staff Lemon and Ricardo were all sooo helpful and knowledgeable. Such a wonderful way to end our trip. They offer a masterclass that would be fun to take too! They take their time explaining the different nuances and obviously love what they do. 10 out of 10. Price per person €15–20 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Exceptional experience! Worth booking a reservation. Ali did a personal ‘perfect G&T’ lesson, Lemon and Richardo were fantastic at making recommendations. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience. The setting is intimate and beautiful. We’ll be back to stay at the eco-resort and we’ll bring our friends. Price per person €40–45 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

The gin library is the most wonderful bar/experience. For such a massive gin collection, they still retain an intimate and cozy feel! Ali is so passionate, and Mrs. B’s cheesy bread is so delicious (and needed with 3 gin and tonics during the master class!). Lemon (the head librarian) is so sweet and knowledgeable as well! It’s also amazing that they started a foundation to protect the Azores whales with Baleia gin, and will be introducing other gins in support of other causes. If you bring a gin they don’t have, you can trade for a free bottle of their gin or a masterclass, as well! Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Unique experience, good view, excellent drinks. I love gin, don't like tonic, and still had them make it as they usually do. My only regret is not requesting seltzer instead. Quite the selection. You really should ask for something specific or the experience won't be much different other than a high quality cocktail. Price per person €15–20

I cannot recommend highly enough! Whether you’re a gin enthusiast or just looking to relax in a beautiful setting with an excellent G&T, The Gin Library should be a stop on your Azores itinerary. Ali and team are incredibly hospitable and make guests feel welcome, and they can expertly guide you on a gin selection (or two)! I made multiple visits during my stay on São Miguel, which were a highlight of my trip. Book a tasting around sunset and sit outside to enjoy the view with a drink and some good conversation, you won’t regret it!

I recently visited the Gin Library, and it's truly a delightful place. What sets it apart is their commitment to using only local ingredients in crafting their unique gin creations. The limited batches they offer are not just lovely but also exclusive, as once they're gone, they're gone. The staff is incredibly friendly, adding to the warm atmosphere. An amusing note is the resident cat, Tony, who has a penchant for stealthily nabbing your chips. A lovely experience overall! Price per person €10–15 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Amazing selection of gin, double-measured G&T, and a beautiful atmosphere + bonus points for cats! We booked a simple trip at the last minute so I wasn't able to experience the master class or the sushi dinner but I will definitely find time to come back! Price per person €15–20 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

The Gin Library was a highlight of our visit to the Azores. We are gin enthusiasts and I make G&T's for all my friends... I'll be putting into practice and talking about my once-in-a-lifetime experience at The Gin Library for years to come! The property also is stunning and inspired some ideas for my husband and I as we will be building out a piece of land next year. Ali and his wife are real visionaries and we just loved the enthusiasm and energy radiating here.

Our group of 8 all agreed that the Gin Library was one of our favorite travel experiences ever. It is completely unique. The location is lovely, the gin library is impressive, and the hosts, Ali, Carolina, and Joanna, are all warm and welcoming. Even the feline librarians did their part making us all feel at home…and were rewarded with a bit of sushi for their good service. We were so happy that we upgraded from gin tasting to a private sushi dinner at Solar Branco. The sushi was amazing and the vegetarian option was incredible! At a minimum, put a gin testing on your Sao Miguel itinerary. You will not regret it!

Beatiful selection of Gin from all over the world. The place is a project in progress to become an eco hotel. On a nice day, sit on the balcony to enjoy an amazing view while sipping your Gin cocktail. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
