The Botanist and The Glasgow Gin Club are running a unique Gin tasting and
foraging event

The Botanist contains 22 of the Botanicals which are foraged from the surrounding area of the Bruichladdich distillery on Islay. To celebrate this the Glasgow Gin Club have organised a foraging walk and Gin tasting event which teaches how to forage and how to use these ingredients in drinks and what is contained in The Botanist.

The foraging walk will start at the Botanic Gardens Glasgow and will make its way along the Kelvin, through Kelvingrove Park, stopping along the way to discuss and gather forage ingredients which are contained in The Botanist or which can be used as a Garnish.
