Our small class received a very thorough and passionate explanation about the Edinburgh gin scene, its players, and their craft: gin! We sampled an expertly-curated selection of cheeses and drank eight different gins, all of them unique in their own right, teaching us all about the intricacies of such an overlooked spirit. Fantastic class, food, ambience, highly recommend.
