In partnership with Bombay Sapphire, the Sanderson hotel bar in London is hosting a pop-up that will provide guests with a unique gin tasting.
Right from the hotel bar, the 'Gin Journey' will take guests on a flavor excursion from the Mediterranean to West Africa and Asia, taking cues from the botanical gin flavors. This flavorful experience will be carried out through the 'Ultimate Gin & Tonic' menu, which is paired with a selection of light refreshments.
The upscale gin tasting event is described as an "elevated sensory journey" and intimate groups of 12 are guided by brand ambassador Renaud de Bosredon through sight, touch, scent, smell and sight, all the while learning about the origins of the Bombay Sapphire gin and how it is produced.
