Gin Tastings in the York Gin Shop
Every Saturday at 6.30pm - £30 per person
Our gin tastings are hosted in our beautiful city centre shop opposite the famous Shambles from 6:30pm every Saturday.
You'll enjoy a full G&T on arrival (our gold award-winning London Dry and Fever-Tree Light tonic).
This is followed by generous tasters of each of our other five gins, as our experts take you through each in turn.
You'll pick up tasting tips, learn about the history of gin and discover gin's myths and legends.
At the end, you’ll choose your favourite gin for another full G&T to round off the evening.
The session lasts around an hour.
