Madrid Tapas Lab: Create Your Own Tapas & Unlimited Sangria

I enjoy trying local foods and drinks and this became the highlight of my trip . The guide was friendly and passionate about Spanish gin and I learned much about the botanicals used in the different varieties The tasting was well paced with a selection of gin that were different. The tapas were excellent with generous portions of cured meat and local cheeses. Overall it was a relaxed evening with great food , quality drinks and plenty of local insights. Perfect activity for a memorable evening, highly recommend.

Overall, the experience was really fun! However, it got off to a rocky start as after arriving at the designated location, staff stated we were not in the correct place and tried to shoo us off to the Sol area and they seemed completely unfamiliar with the Gin Workshop. We showed confirmation documentation and there were multiple conversations between staff members and then all was righted. David provided us with the 1st 2 gins and tapas. Then he left (perhaps the end of his shift?) and Moses did the 3rd. The 3d was our favorite made with Rivas Gin + cardomom + pepper + cinnamon + a small splash of sprite + tonic. It was delicious. So the overall experience turned out just fine and was fun! As a side note, we like the 3rd drink so much that we made a specific point to return to the restaurant where the workshop took place 3 weeks later and explained the drink we came for made with Rivas. The bartender nor the other person (the original one who tried to send us on our way to Sol) knew how to make the drink and after we described the ingredients, he brought them individually to us and we tried to re-create the drink. We failed. I would encourage the staff to learn how to make the most delicious gin and tonic (and I'm not a gin tonic drinker, normally) from Moses. A boost business. The restaurant is located across from the San Miquel market so...location and opportunity.

Moisés enthusiastic for sharing the variation and history of Spanish gins in a quiet bar overlooking the San Miguel market.

Ticket said views of madrid there was none, it was inside a bar, the peiple in bar did not know why we where there, also no work shop it was drinks just given to us . It was fine but discription was not what we recieved

This gin and tonics workshop was interesting, fun, and tasty!! Moises was our host; he was knowledgeable and charming and made us fabulous G&Ts with gin we’d never had before. The accompanying tapas were delicious. A big thanks to Martin for making them for us. I recommend this as a great way to start an evening in Madrid!!

It wasn’t what I expected, but We had a wonderful time! We got a great explanation of the gins for each drink - These aren’t samples- you get full pours for each g&t! You also get some amazingly tasty tapas to accompany each drink. Then they leave you alone to enjoy your food and drink before bringing you the next one. There was no rush to get out after the last one, it was really a chill evening. I would highly recommend- it is well worth the price you pay!
