Fragrant, refreshing and quintessentially English, it’s little wonder the gin trend sees no sign of abating. It’s safe to say discerning sippers have fallen hard for the juniper-infused spirit. For gin aficionados and newcomers alike, we have curated the ultimate gin adventure.
Held in the elegant Donovan Bar at Brown’s Hotel, our Gin Tasting Experience for two whisks guests on a gustatory journey via three carefully selected gin varieties. Led by an expert mixologist, they’ll learn how to taste and identify the different aromatics that lend each gin its unique personality, from dry to herbal and spiced. Each gin will be perfectly paired with a complimentary tonic water.
Our Gin Tasting Experience for two is available to buy as a gift voucher and makes a wonderful surprise for the epicurean explorer in your life. Click here to discover more or purchase the voucher.
