Highlights
Make a day of Portobello Road and make a gin of your own. Explore the market when it is trading, browse the shops and soak up Notting Hill before heading above an old British pub for cocktails, storytelling and a hands-on taste of London's gin heritage. At The Ginstitute, above The Portobello Star, settle in for a spirited 2.5-hour tutored journey through gin's colourful and often miserable past. Over cocktails, your gin instructor brings together the drink's origins, London's Gin Craze and its place in British drinking culture. Then discover what you like in your glass. In a group of no more than 12, smell and taste individual botanical distillates before choosing the flavours for your own gin. Leave with a personal 70cl bottle: a taste of your time on Portobello Road, made to your preferences. Your recipe is saved for future paid reorders to keep your own bespoke Gin blend well stocked for the future.
