Discover workshops at the Gin Festival: an experience not to be missed!

The Gin Festival is the place to immerse yourself in the world of gin, distilling and everything related to this wonderful beverage. In addition to tastings and the chance to enjoy the finest products, we offer a series of workshops that will take your festival experience to the next level. Whether you are a seasoned gin lover or just beginning your journey of discovery, the workshops are a perfect blend of learning, tasting and experiencing.

Learn from the experts

During the workshops, you will have the unique opportunity to learn directly from the experts. Masters of the trade – from distillers and bartenders to historians and taste experts – will share their knowledge and passion with you. They will take you into the fascinating world of ingredients, techniques and traditions that lie behind every bottle. This is your chance to ask questions, learn from the best and get a behind-the-scenes look.

Workshops for all

Our workshop offerings are varied, so there is something for everyone. Want to learn more about how gin is made? Then join a distilling workshop and discover how water, grains and spices come together in a process that is both artisanal and scientific. For the creative, there is a cocktail workshop, where you will learn how to make the perfect gin cocktail – a work of art in a glass that will impress your guests at home. Are you more interested in history and traditions? Then join a workshop on the rich heritage side of gin. Here you will discover how this drink is intertwined with Dutch culture and how it has earned its place in the world of spirits.

Taste and experience

What makes these workshops so special is that it’s not just about listening, but mostly about doing. During most workshops, you get plenty of opportunity to taste, experiment and put the knowledge you have gained into practice immediately. Discover how subtle differences in ingredients can create a world of taste differences and learn how to recognize and name your own preferences.

An experience to take home

After the workshops, you will go home not only with new knowledge, but also with practical tips, recipes and maybe even a homemade creation. Plus, you’ll get a unique experience to share with friends and family, whether you want to demonstrate your favorite cocktail or tell your story about the art of distilling.

The perfect addition to your festival day

The workshops are a great way to make your visit to the Gin Festival extra special. Whether you just want to escape the crowds or add an extra dimension to your day, the workshops make for an unforgettable experience. They are suitable for small groups, giving you plenty of room to ask questions and receive personal guidance. In short, the workshops at the Gin Festival offer everything you need to dive deeper into the world of gin. They are instructive, inspiring and, above all, great fun.
