What you’ll do in the class
At the gin and tonic tasting in the PINTA cocktail bar, you arrive relaxed, take a seat and are accompanied by our team through the evening. At the beginning, we will briefly explain what is really important in gin and tonic: gin style, botanicals, tonic water, bitterness, sweetness, carbonic acid, temperature, ratio and garnish.
We will then try out different gins and tonics together. We're talking about juniper, citrus, herbs, spices, floral notes and modern gin styles. Then it's about the question of which tonic goes with which gin and why some combinations look fresher, spicier, drier or fruitier.
The tasting is deliberately structured in a practical way. You compare different combinations, get professional input and develop a feeling step by step for which gin and tonic suits your taste.
During the tasting, water, bread and candied olives are ready to neutralize. In the end, you not only know several gin and tonic variants, but also find your personal favorite combination.
Who is the class suitable for?
The gin and tonic tasting is suitable for anyone who loves gin and tonic or wants to understand it better. You don't need any previous knowledge and don't need to know any technical terms.
The course is ideal for beginners who want to find out which gin and tonic suits them. At the same time, it is exciting for connoisseurs who already drink gin and tonic and want to discover new combinations, botanicals and styles.
The tasting is also very suitable for groups, teams, birthdays, JGAs, corporate events or a special evening with friends.
The focus is on enjoyment, exchange and the search for the perfect gin and tonic combination at the PINTA cocktail bar in Dresden Neustadt.
