Sounds good to me.

 

[Mrs Quackers]

Due to a cancellation we now have 3 places available for what is looking like a fabulous experience. Not only do you get to taste gin, drink gin and make gin you now have the option of staying on to drink more gin (other drinks available at this point) and enjoy a meal with all your new (or old!!) friends! What's not to love

 

[John n Jinny]

I can always nip home and make a brew .

 

[John n Jinny]

Roll up roll up Gin galore ,get in touch if you want some more .Im here all day .xxxx

 

[Quackers]

This is a great opportunity to learn all about gin, and have a go at making your own.
And then bottle it up, and take some home, if it lasts that long?
Come and join us for a gin weekend in March.

Can't wait, but is it because of the Gin, or is it we start our European Tour, however both are going to be great

 

[Maudy]

I’ll be thinking of you whilst drinking Gin Canary Island style

I am still thinking what botanicals to use, and not sure what to add i.e. different spices, fruits and floral elements

 

[busbuddy]

Chen pi, hibiscus and rosa canina are good...they also work in vodka

 

[Mrs Quackers]

I am still thinking what botanicals to use, and not sure what to add i.e. different spices, fruits and floral elements

It depends what you like. I personally don't like the floral notes but I do like the citrus and slightly herbal botanicals (rosemary, thyme) with maybe a peppery note. I also like a tiny touch of star anise bit that's a very personal choice

Maybe you should try lots of different gins between now and March so you know what you like

 

[Peregrinator]

Yes I do like star anise, I do like aniseed & licorice, so I would be well away with that one.

 

[Quackers]

If you like your gin, we have room for a few more on this adventure.

[Taran_Las]

Rum flavoured gin. ​

 

[Quackers]

I really don't like gin unlike Mrs Quackers, is rum flavoured gin even possible? We will have to ask the experts when we get there in March.

 

[Quackers]

Come and join us for a gin get together in March, look at the weekend schedule above.

This is a great opportunity to learn all about gin, and have a go at making your own.
And then bottle it up, and take some home, if it lasts that long?

 

[Quackers]

[John n Jinny]
