Had a fantastic little night making pastries with my sister. Light dinner, few drinks and our baking to take home. Something fun and different. I’ve been to the cooking class and cocktail class before and really enjoyed them too x

With 120+ gins behind our bar, we’ve learned a thing or two about gin, and can't wait to share that knowledge. We’ll explain the origins of gin culture, from “Dutch Courage” to “Mother’s Ruin”. It’s not just about the history, we’ll talk you through the distillation processes, the common and not so common botanicals used in gins, as well as how to pair with our favourite garnishes.
