点评:A fabulous way to spend an afternoon (or a morning if you are a morning person) in Aberdeen.
This Gin masterclass was a birthday treat and one of the best I have ever received. I did not exactly know what to expect so I would not want to spoil it for someone else, but let’s say that if you are a gin lover this is definitely for you.
Don & Alan, the founders of Aberdeen city Gin distillery have for sure polished their masterclass: there is no rest for one’s curiosity and enthusiasm. While you will learn about spirits, gin, the distilleries in Aberdeen and the shire, visit the facility, get a glimpse of the process and have very generous tastes of the house production (on that note you should walk to the Distillery or take a bus or a cab!) , you understand you are going to professionally make your own gin! and this is a huge responsibility!
All those spices,flowers, herbs... It is a very good thing that Alan & Don guide you through your choices to help materialise one of your dreams in a bottle you will bring home, named, professionally labelled and sealed. The temptation is too big to put too much!
Then, once home, starts another one which is : wait for the aromas to settle and apparently it takes 3 months!

这次杜松子酒大师班是一次生日盛宴,也是我收到过的最好的之一。我不知道会发生什么,所以我不想破坏其他人的体验,但如果你是杜松子酒爱好者,这绝对适合你。
阿伯丁市杜松子酒酿酒厂的创始人 Don 和 Alan 无疑已经打磨出了他们的大师级作品:好奇心和热情永不停歇。您将了解烈酒、杜松子酒、阿伯丁和郡的酿酒厂,参观工厂,一睹酿造过程,品尝自家生产的丰富味道(请注意,您应该步行前往酿酒厂或乘坐巴士或出租车!),您知道您将专业地制作自己的杜松子酒!这是一个巨大的责任!
所有这些香料、鲜花、香草……艾伦和唐指导您做出选择,帮助您在瓶子中实现您的梦想,您可以带回家,命名,专业贴上标签并密封,这是一件非常好的事情。诱惑太大,不能放太多!
然后,一回到家,就开始另一件事:等待香气消散,显然需要三个月!
