Let’s get straight to it, if your opinion on gin is that only your grandmother drinks it – you’re way out. Gin’s been popular for centuries with the Great British drinking public. The term ‘Dutch courage’ comes from English soldiers fighting the Spanish in the Netherlands and getting drunk on... Dutch genever gin beforehand. And since then it’s been a popular drink with men. The likes of Hemingway and Humphrey Bogart drank it. It’s even a key ingredient in James Bond’s favourite cocktail. Still think it’s only your nan who drinks it?
Gin tasting is a perfect activity for a big group of lads, for example family as well as friends, who might not all know one another. The hands on atmosphere (and plenty of gin) has a way of getting chins wagging and the good times flowing.

There’s gin and food involved in this, so what else could you possibly ask for on a stag weekend?!
Grab the lads down by the river for a gin tasting masterclass before you go and show Nottingham that you there for a good time not a long time!
You’ll get to taste 5 different gins whilst getting a little more knowledgeable about the spirt. During the tasting or downing session, there will be some nibbles to keep all the lads satisfied.
Once you and the boys have chosen your favourite gin, you will receive a personalised G&T to finish off. But before you leave, there is also a main meal for each person to get you ready for the night ahead.
It’s an activity which keeps on giving!
- Five sample gin tastings with a range of garnishes and tonics
- Nibbles throughout the session
- Large G&T to finish
- Meal from the Academey Menu
- Up to two hour session
