We took part in the Cocktail Masterclass at Hayman’s and had the BEST time! Alexandra was a brilliant host, very knowledgeable and engaging. We learnt lots about tasting gins before we got to see how to mix them. We loved having a go at mixing one of the cocktails and trying the others.

Fantastic experience in a very nice distillery. The cocktail masterclass by Marcus and Alexis was topnotch. All three gins we tasted were deliciously different, and the three cocktails easy and tasty. Highly recommend the gin AND the class.
