Sampling the gin at Portsmouth Distillery

The St George's Ladies had an excellent visit to Portsmouth Distillery at Fort Cumberland. An introductory talk about the history of the fort and then how the business was born was followed by an interesting introduction to the art of distilling gin and rum. Then we were given the chance to sample half a dozen gins and rums with explanations of how best to drink them. A complimentary drink of our choice was offered to finish the afternoon off. On the hottest day of June it was an excellent way to spend an afternoon in the Powder Magazine where the temperature remains constant throughout the year.
