Looking for something a bit different to do in Edinburgh? I recently took part in one of 56 North's Gin Masterclasses and would definitely recommend!
The resident gin expert talked us through 8 different gins: some brands we recognised as well as some more specialised bottles. We were left to choose how we paired the gin using the 5 different mixers provided. I must admit that I hadn’t considered tonic water much until the class, but I now realise what a difference a good quality tonic can make to your drink!
The class was just the right size with about twenty of us at 3 different tables, it gave us a chance to ask our ask our questions and have one on one chats with the class leader.
Half way through, we were given a quick break when the delightful canapés including smoked salmon pitta breads, macaroons and profiteroles were brought out on cake stands.
It was the perfect Sunday afternoon activity and within walking distance from The Old Chapel @ George Square, The Causewayside Apartment @ The Southside and The Gatekeepers Cottage @ Blacket Estate, book a last minute stay now!
