Nick Jocelyn who founded the White House Distillery in Otley will tell us about the history of gin. A 1751 etching, Gin Lane, by William Hogarth depicts the desperate situation of a woman in a London street, but by the end of that century the gin craze was over.

There will be a sample of White House gin and an opportunity start your Christmas shopping! Cost £8 member, £10 non-member.
