What to expect
You'll be welcomed with a gin and tonic as your host walks through gin's story—from its origins to modern craft distillation. Expect to spend roughly 45 minutes nosing and tasting four distinct spirits, learning what separates each one. The tasting notes will cover botanicals, production techniques, and what makes each gin distinct. It's informal rather than stiff; fellow participants are usually keen to chat. The Old Royal Naval College setting feels proper without being pretentious, and you'll leave with a clearer sense of what you actually like in a gin.
