Entwicklung der Gin- und Underground-Gin-Verkostung in Edinburgh | 1Std.
Beschreibung
Mehr als nur ein Gin-Tasting – hier geht es um die Evolution des Gins! Bei diesem Erlebnis folgen Sie der Reise des Gins von seinen Ursprüngen bis zu dem modernen Spirituosen, den wir kennen und lieben. Ihr Reiseleiter führt Sie durch die verschiedenen Geschmacksrichtungen, erklärt die Geschichte des Gins und schlägt vor, welche Mixer Sie zu den (4) Gins, die Sie probieren werden, hinzufügen sollten - das Mischen bleibt Ihnen überlassen, damit Sie ihn so stark oder so zart wie möglich haben können Du würdest mögen! Dies ist ein Bereich von Edinburgh, der in The Lost Close stattfindet und unter dem alten Gefängnisgebäude begraben war, bis es 2018 freigelegt wurde, ein Ort, zu dem nur wir Zugang haben, und es gibt keinen vergleichbaren Ort in der Stadt!

A unique, interesting and super fun experience! We loved Hayley’s expert knowledge and storytelling, we learnt a lot and felt privileged to see and experience this incredible lost close whilst sipping and learning about the evolution of gin. Amazing to see a glimpse into Edinburgh and wider Scotland during those periods of history. A must do when visiting Edinburgh -5 star experience that we would highly recommend. Thank you Hayley, you are a superstar 🏴🔥🙏🏼
The venue was amazing, very atmospheric and loved all the associated history and our host, Lydia was just lovely. Very knowledgeable and welcoming. It was a small group so easy to chat amongst ourselves. It was a gift and thoroughly enjoyed doing something different. We did have an issue with booking online but it was all to do with the Virgin voucher and it's booking process rather than the venue. They were able to sort it all out very efficiently. Loved it.
Thank you for sharing such a wonderful review. We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed the unique atmosphere of our underground space and the stories hidden within its history, and that Lydia helped make the experience so memorable with their warm and knowledgeable approach. It's also lovely to know that the smaller group setting made for an enjoyable and relaxed experience, especially as a gift and something a little different to discover. While we're sorry to hear about the voucher booking issue, we're pleased our team could help resolve it smoothly and get everything back on track. Slainte, The Lost Close Team

I booked this tour on Viator for our small group and had an enjoyable time in the very special Lost Close with Elanor as our guide through some unique gin choices with a ton of history thrown in to make it very interesting as well. Mixers are included as well.

I brought my wife here as a wee surprise for our first anniversary and I managed to keep it a secret until we were led down into the vault. We loved the setting, the history of the vault and all the historical facts about gin. We also loved the gins that we sampled. Our tour guide, Halley was very personable and informative. A good time was had.
Thank you for choosing to mark such a special anniversary with us! We’re delighted the hidden setting, stories from Edinburgh’s past, and the evolution of gin made it a memorable surprise. It’s wonderful to hear that Haley’s warm, knowledgeable storytelling helped bring the experience to life. We hope the memories linger long after the last sip, and we’d love to welcome you back underground again. Slainte, The Lost Close Team

Absolutely AMAZING! It’s a MUST, seriously. Hailey and Mark were fantastic. Extremely knowledgeable, great sense of humor, storytelling skills and very patient with all our questions. Also they were very accommodating with my restriction of not liking gin (ahahah I know) - and let me joint the gin tour while also offering a beer one. Seriously, do it. And it’s insanely cheap for the value of it! Congratulations guys!
Thank you so much! Haley and Mark will be thrilled to hear this. We’re so glad you enjoyed the flexibility and the experience. Hope to see you again! Emilie – Marketing Manager
Very informative while still being enjoyable. Nikki did a great job of hosting the evening. She even moved rooms when I got claustrophobic in the smallest room.
Thank you for sharing this lovely feedback! We’re so pleased you enjoyed the experience and that Nikki made you feel comfortable throughout the evening. — Emilie, Marketing Manager
This was such an interesting way to learn about Scottish history through gin. All of the samples we tasted were a part of the story, and our host was such a wonderful story teller and you can tell it’s a topic she enjoys and she was very intentional with her choices of gin she shared with us. The tasting rooms and space were also really cool and definitely added to the experience.
Delighted you enjoyed learning history through gin! We love hearing how our hosts and space add to the experience. Cheers! – Emilie, Marketing Manager
