Edinburgh Underground Gin Experience Reveals Spirit’s Historic Journey


Visitors are being invited to discover the rich and evolving history of gin through an immersive tasting experience in the heart of Edinburgh. The event explores the spirit’s transformation from its early medicinal origins to its modern status as one of the world’s most popular drinks, offering guests both education and enjoyment.


The experience is guided by an expert who introduces guests to the craft behind gin production, highlighting the importance of botanicals, distillation methods, and regional influences. Participants sample four carefully selected gins, each showcasing distinct flavour profiles and techniques that reflect the diversity of the spirit.


Unlike traditional tastings, guests are given the freedom to personalise their experience by adjusting the strength and balance of their drinks. While expert guidance and pairing suggestions are provided, visitors are encouraged to explore their own preferences, creating a more interactive and engaging session.


The tasting takes place in The Lost Close, a hidden underground space in Edinburgh uncovered in 2018 after being sealed for centuries. Once part of an area beneath an old prison building, this atmospheric setting adds a dramatic backdrop to the experience, blending history, mystery, and flavour into a memorable journey for gin enthusiasts and curious visitors alike.
