Gin Cocktail Masterclass
Everyone has their favourite drink, but can you replicate that in your own home? Whether you prefer the timeless gin classics or something a little more adventurous, our masterly mixologists can teach you exactly how to make your favourite cocktails.
We offer a range of Gin Cocktail Masterclasses, where you can learn the art of cocktail making and find out how to mix, shake and serve some of the most delicious drinks around. Perhaps you’re a cocktail novice and you want to learn what it’s all about. If you can’t tell a Gin Fizz from a Gin Martini, or a Negroni from a Napoleon, our popular cocktail-making classes will teach you everything you need to know. Cocktail making isn’t as straightforward as our skilled mixologists make it appear, and when you join one of our classes, you will learn how it is done correctly from the experts, as well as having the pleasure of drinking all the drinks you make.
After a welcome drink, you will be guided through the history of gin and how it is made before being let loose behind the bar. Learning about mixing the perfect cocktail at our masterclass is a great way to celebrate for special occasions, corporate entertaining, team building or even just a night out with friends.
Corporate Hospitality
Bored of the ever-so familiar corporate hospitality and same old team building activities and looking for something more refreshing? Why don’t you swap the golf tee for a G&T?
Host a gloriously ‘ginspired’ event instead to impress and thank your clients or reignite and infuse your teams spirit with a one-of-a-kind gin experience based on your favourite juniper flavoured spirit?
Vault 52; unravel the mystery and history around our number one spirit. Our gin tasting experiences are a perfect way to add flavour to any corporate or team building events. We have a range of gin experiences and gin tasting events available. From hosting a ‘traditional’ round-table tasting event to running a pop-up ‘Gin Station’ within your networking event or drinks reception.
Each type of experience is fun, engaging and memorable and will change your view on this historic drink and its complexity.
