The Gin School Experience

Life is a journey, and so is creating a special bottle of artisanal Gin. The Indaba Gin School is an educational and exciting 2 hour experiential journey through the intriguing world of Gin.

Our Gin Master will take you back in time exploring the origin of gin hundreds of years ago all the way to modern times and the great popularity Gin enjoys today. You will learn new things and have a laugh with friends about facts you can barely believe to be true. As in life, making your own Gin is a process with many important steps. The experience gives everyone involved the opportunity to express themselves and their unique personalities in a special and creative way.

The personally hand-labelled bottle of Craft Gin is a journey in itself to be embarked on at your own leisure with friends, family or colleagues. In it will be all the ingredients and botanicals that you selected and carefully infused, and with it you will carry a glorious selection of memories and stories of unique diversity and a journey well worth the effort.

In addition to being open to the public from Wednesday to Saturday (11H00-18H00), the space will also host launches, special celebrations, gin making masterclasses, gin tasings and pairings. The gin sensorium is also available for corporate and private functions and booking is essential.

Stay in the know: Follow the Gin School on Facebook to be updated about events and new seasonal tastings.

BOTANICALS & HANDCRAFTED GIN

After carefully selecting your unique ingredients and botanicals, they all go into a specially-crafted copper still, and the distillation process gets underway.

Watching the burning flame underneath your pot-still and seeing the tiny drops of clear liquid form and drop into a collection cup excitingly reminds you of the wonderful science that Gin actually is and further whets your appetite for that all-important "first taste".

Your pot-still is where the magic truly happens.

There isn't really anything that compares to the feeling of satisfaction you get when walking away from (or with) a successful project, knowing that the work you have done truly reflects your personality, with all its deep and quirky aspects.
