One of the best things I have had the pleasure of booking. Dan & Alan are the perfect team and their passion shows. I had an absolute ball. The group was small and we all chatted and laughed. There was a good selection of things to purchase, especially for long haul travel. Thoroughly recommend

Amazing experience. Loved the class. Dan and Allan were so friendly and welcoming. They also extended the time on my voucher as I was unable to attend before the time ran out. Cannot thank them enough. Definitely worth a visit. Would buy this experience for someone as a gift. And the gin is spectacular.

Great experience, Alan and Dan are very passionate about their gin and very knowledgeable too, served great tasting gins, explained all about the different botanicals and the making of gin, recommend to everyone to go

I like Gin and have a coup,e i strongly favor. My husband not so much, until this class. He now has a greater admiration and respect for gin. One blocked road having some construction, made it not so easy to find. Best parking is at the nearby mall lot and walk to the distillery. Elen and Dan do a remarkable job explaining the process used to produce gin. Starting off with a G&T, you learn about the alcohol chosen for the gin, and even more importantly, the botanicals that can be used o flavour it. Gin must be above 42% and have juniper distillate included. Any other botanicals is up to the maker. And you can make your own at home! We had a group of 7 and each had different interpretations of the aromas given off by the botanical distillates, cardamom, angelica, coriander, to name just a few! You then can mix the botanical distillates studied into a new G&T. Beware, even just small sips on the distillates and the two G&Ts may leave you feeling it the next day!

Amazing evening at the gin masterclass with City of Aberdeen Distillery. Very knowledgable hosts and such an interesting idea teaching people about the individual botanicals which can make up a gin - I’ve never been to a tasting like it before and would definitely recommend!

Took the gin-tasting master class as a couple. Allan, who gives the class is very informative, while maintaining a relaxed, calming vibe. Dan, who served the tipple, is warm and friendly. Both are clearly excited about what they do and very knowledgeable. Good for a couples night out :)

Really enjoyed a fab gin tasting experience with Alan and Dan last night. Really relaxed environment, cool location. Everything was explained really well and I didn’t feel stupid for not knowing very much. Great gin, great hosts, great time.

We were given The Gin Tasting Masterclass as a Christmas gift and it was excellent. Dan was the perfect host, it's always good to start things off with a double G&T!! Alan was extremely knowledgeable and was clearly very passionate about gin. Overall the experience was excellent however the stools left us a little numb 🙈

Interessant og morsom "Gin Tasting Master Class". Vi ble møtt av to hyggelige verter, Alan og Dan, og fikk servert en dobbel GT, før vi fikk vite om historien bak destilleriet. Dernest fikk vi lære om ulike botanicals, og fikk utfordret smakssansen. Vertene var kunnskapsrike og hyggelige. Anbefales!

Allan und Dan sind mit Herz dabei und man merkt ihnen die Lust, Gin zu brauen (destillieren) förmlich an. Es war ein amüsantes kurzweiliges Vergnügen, und man lernt sogar noch was.
