Taking place at the Assembly Rooms on Edinburgh’s George Street, The Gin Lounge event offers gin lovers the chance to taste all of gins from the soon to be opened Holyrood Distillery, alongside more than 50+ other gins.

Amanda Ludlow, founder of The Gin Lounge and co-founder of its sister company, The Whisky Lounge, said: “We’re delighted that Holyrood Distillery will be joining us at The Gin Lounge.
"Here is a distillery bringing back a great tradition to the heart of Scotland’s capital city and it will be the first opportunity to experience the tastes and flavours they can produce.
“As a team, we are passionate about gin and we are delighted to bring the festival back to Edinburgh following the success of our inaugural event in December last year.
"We are looking forward to sharing our expertise with attendees and to give them the chance to discover their new favourite gins, while learning about the skills required to create great gin.
"A multi-sensory experience, The Gin Lounge offers an exciting day out with a difference.”
