Overview

In this tutored gin tasting, led by the Head Distiller, you’ll have the opportunity taste the traditional gin botanicals (Juniper, Coriander, Angelica, Orris) as single distillates, training your palette to the individual flavours that make gin…gin. This is an essential skill for any gin connoisseur!

Sample the range of small batch Aberdeen Gin expressions (London Dry and Fruit gins).

Challenge yourself with the mystery single distillate – will you be the first to guess the botanical?

The event concludes with a G&T of your choice – choose any gin from the range or perhaps one of the single distillates you’ve enjoyed during the event.

All of the distillates / gins have been crafted using premium organic alcohol – luxuriously smooth.

Once you’ve finished the tasting you’ll gain the ability to recognise the flavours that make up gin. Take this knowledge home, explore your gin shelves and enjoy your very own tasting with the skills you’ve learned during this Gin Tasting Masterclass.

Activity itinerary

Have you ever wondered what Juniper tastes like? Would you like to become an expert gin taster? Starting with a double G&T and led by the Head Distiller, the Gin Tasting Masterclass opens up a world of flavour as you experience flavours through a range of single distillates. Each botanical found in a traditional London Dry Gin has been individually distilled so you may train your palate to recognise the distinct flavours the come together to make gin. Next, become a mixologist and blend these distillates together to create your own glass of gin. Put your new found skills to the test with a challenge – a mystery botanical as a single distillate – can you guess what botanical has been distilled based on flavour? Enjoy samples from the range of Aberdeen Gins – served directly from beautiful French glass demi-johns – both London Dry and Fruit Gins. Finally, choose your preferred gin from the range and sip a final G&T as the event concludes with a Q&A session – the perfect time to ask all those gin related questions, such as… How long can I keep my gin? What should I look for when purchasing gin? Is London Dry Gin all from London? Can I make my own gin at home?
