Cocktails: Taste the Hay Landscape

Kick off your evening at Hay Festival with an adventure in cocktail artistry. In this session designed to pique your palate, botanicals experts from Hay Distillery will guide you through a tasting session, sharing some of the secrets of the craft and offering samples of delicious cocktails made from their exquisite small-batch spirits. Can you tell your quince from your apple and pear? Your rose from your rosemary, or your lemon balm from your lavender? Put your tastebuds to the test and bring your curiosity!

Hay Distillery is an award-winning micro distillery based in the heart of Hay-on-Wye. They distill, bottle and hand-label tiny batches of spirits, including their ‘fantastically feral’ Wild Knapp Gin and Dr Beaky’s London Dry gin, capturing the outstanding natural fragrances of the local landscape.
