Ginposium 2018 a big hit
Ginposium 2018 was hailed a huge success, with over 3,000 samples of gin poured by the Gin Guild support team.
Elsewhere the Gin Guild introduced and proposed Gin-Note, a flavour guidance template designed to allow consumers, retailers, bartenders and others to benefit from access, across a wide range of gins, to a standard flavour summary of each of those gin brands.
NEW: BOOK TICKETS TO GINPOSIUM 2019
The guidance is prepared by brands themselves using a fixed and consistent framework, alongside their own branding descriptions, to inform, educate and guide those seeking to explore the category.
