What did you get up to?
Being a gin enthusiast myself, I was very excited to attend this ‘All Around the World with Different Gins’ experience and it definitely didn’t disappoint from start to finish!

I was warmly welcomed by Rob, the gin tasting host, on my arrival with a refreshing sea glass gin cocktail.
Along the way I learned about the history of Genever, how the Dutch influenced the British to drink this and where the phrase ‘Dutch courage’ originates from. We also got to smell the famous juniper berry and discover its contribution to the world of gin.

I opted for three courses which were served in between the gin samples. Please be aware this is not included in the experience but available for a supplement fee. I enjoyed some delicious sweet potato fries, chicken burger and a gorgeous home-made brownie with ice-cream!

Of course, the best part has to be the gin itself! Tasters included ‘Old Tom’ Gin, Genever and Mermaid Gin. We also got to enjoy some delicious cocktails as a result! I tried a Rhubarb tonic which I loved and as I usually prefer to have lemonade with my gin, I was pleasantly surprised. We even got Negroni’s made for us which were lovely.

Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed this experience and would recommend this to anyone who loves gin and wants to explore more!

What did you enjoy the most?
Rob was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about the history of gin. As well as educating us on the different botanicals used in gin, he encouraged us to engage our taste buds as well.

    We were sat by the door and people left it open as so busy, very cold the whole time. The toilet didn’t have a light in it. The cream tea I’ve had better. Only two varieties of gin Gordon’s and another. We had better at the garden centre. Didn’t think it was value for money I paid through Activity Store.

    What a lovely, gentle experience in Cheddar, Somerset in the Lionsrock tea rooms. Very pretty outside on a hot sunny day. Sandwiches and cakes were very good and they provided gluten free , a big bonus . The rooms inside have exceptional decoration. Make a day of it, go early and see the caves.
