This time of year there’s nothing worse than being stuck in a gift-giving rut, whether it's friends, family or co-workers, sometimes a scented candle just doesn’t hit the gift-giving spot.
Artisan Gin Co. understands the need to liven up your gifts this year and is slinging $40 off their Gin School and their downstairs neighbour Queensland Distillery is following suit with their Rum School.
Spend An Afternoon Sipping Sophisticated Drinks And Blending Botanicals
If your crew is like us and is firmly aboard the gin train, book an afternoon of cocktails and distillation at Red Queen Gin School in Brisbane's CBD to craft your own unique bottle of gin to take home.
Located in the heritage Metro Arts Theatre building, Gin School classes offer punters two hours of learning from knowledgeable teachers on the history and traditions of gin while sipping signature cocktails before students don lab coats and craft their own blends from their 180 botanicals on offer. If all that distilling works up an appetite, add on a perfectly paired charcuterie board for you and your crew to nibble on between sniffs and sips.

Enjoy Summery Sips With Captain Moreton Spiced Rum School
If you’re stuck on ideas for the life of the party in your group, give the gift of a rum spicing class at Captain Moreton Spiced Rum School tucked away in the dungeon of the old Metro Arts Theatre on Edward Street in the CBD.
If mouth-watering rum cocktails have been all over your feeds, book in and enjoy two hours learning to make cocktails and spicing your own bottle of rum, perfect for those recipes you’ve been bookmarking. Take inspiration from the four cocktails you’ll help create and the plate of charcuterie offered throughout the event before picking from 72 different fruits, herbs and spices to create your unique bottle of rum. Plus, you can pick up an additional bottle of rum on the day for 50% off.
