Gin lovers rejoice as Scotland’s ultimate spirit festival arrives in Edinburgh, Glasgow & Aberdeen...
With added rum! A journey of craft spirit discovery awaits with over 50 distillers under one roof, creating a unique gin and rum experience.
Love gin? Then you won’t want to miss Scotland’s ultimate gin festival experience, bringing together over 50 (yes 50!) distillers under one roof. Visiting Aberdeen on August 26th-27th, Edinburgh on September 10th-11th and Glasgow on October 28th30th, The Gin To My Tonic Show offers an Aladdin’s cave of gin and craft spirits, as you work the room and sample with distillers old and new to find yourself a new favourite drink. You’ll be able to enjoy unlimited tasting samples, with a choice of over 250 craft gins and spirits – but that’s not all.
There will be a chance to take part in immersive workshops and masterclasses led by industry experts, take a seat and let talented bar staff serve you some gin exclusives and widen your love of spirits by tasking vodka, whisky and more.
And if rum is your favourite, an exciting new festival experience has been added this year, with The Craft Rum Show as part of the gin festival. MD Paul Hudson explained: “Scotland has a vibrant and innovative craft spirit scene, and the festival is here to celebrate this. When paying £30+ for a bottle of gin you want to know you are going to like it, so you can work the room and sample as part of your ticket fee, whilst hearing from the makers themselves.
“It’s the little things that make craft gin, craft rum and craft spirits generally so fascinating and the festival really taps into this, while offering you a great time in the process. With over 50 distillers exhibiting at each of our shows, it is rare to get so many distillers under one roof and be able to sample and speak to them so freely.”
What to expect
Each of the 50+ distillery and mixer brands have their own unique space to learn their stories, production methods, botanical make-up and tasting notes.
Enjoy samples from each of the brands but plan your time wisely, as with over 250+ craft spirits there’s plenty to discover.
Like what you’ve tried? Then you can purchase a full-size drink straight from the distillery, or even grab yourself a bottle to take home for your collection!
Get hands-on with cocktail making workshops brought to you by leading spirit brands. Learn about distillation methods and what makes brands unique by attending masterclasses, hosted by established and emerging distilleries.
Enjoy a drink at our fabulous bars, including The Gin To My Tonic Bar and Connoisseur VIP Bar.
