Class description
Discover the different styles and flavors of the gin world. Each era is characterized by a unique gin style, which we encounter on this journey. Because no other spirit reflects the historical development of humanity so well.
What is the process?
In the first part of the tasting, we will search for clues about juniper. We teach the basics of gin distillation, its historical and social development and try out the classics from Genever to London Dry Gin. In general, you will always get a sample to sip on first and then half a gin & tonic with the respective gin. During the spirits trip, we take a culinary break. The respective partner location prepares a selection of delicious dishes from the current menu card. The second part is a taste explosion of the senses. Whether sweetened or macerated in fruit, distilled with exotic ingredients or refined in barrels, gin offers an almost endless range of flavors.
Who is the tasting suitable for?
The tasting is suitable for anyone who is interested in the development history of gin. It doesn't matter whether you are already a lover or this is your first tasting. Of course, you must have reached the age of 18.
