Immerse yourself in a forest and gather native plants that flavour No8 spirits.

2 sessions: 12pm-2pm & 3pm-5pm

Join No8’s master distiller, Julien, for a full immersion as a forager.

Discover the secret of how to use native plants in spirits during a small hike and a tasting at the distillery.

Meet at the Pineapple Track parking at 57 Fulton Road, Glenleith.

Then travel back to 90 Bond Street for a tasting session at the Distillery.

Julien is following a proud family tradition. His family is from Deauville, Normandy in France and have distilled Calvados, an apple liquor and speciality of the region, since 1910.

For Julien, different spirits suit different moods. He crafts spirits to be full of flavour and to appeal to different states of mind.

“The Horopito Gin works well when you’re feeling extroverted and the Hibiscus Gin is the one to give you a hug.” Julien
