Learn about the dark history and bright future of gin! This class will cover historical aspects of gin, the botanicals that define and shape the category, and the cocktails that let juniper shine. We'll sip a number of gin-based cocktails, and taste fractions of a deconstructed gin from Drexel Spirits. We'll taste and smell the botanicals that give gin its flavor, and create a 'choose your own adventure' gin and tonic.

Special guest, Courtney Booms is a mixologist and former manager/co-head bartender of The Relief and Resource Co. in Fenton, MI. She's a spirits and beverage history enthusiast with a fascination for all things botanical.

The class price includes 2 full-size cocktails along with several more tastes. This is an in-person class with limited seating, $75 per person.
