A look back at the “Do You Speak Gin?” Festival in Liège: An Unforgettable Experience
We had the pleasure of participating at “Do You Speak Gin?” which was held on June 29 & 30, 2024 in Liège. Organized in the majestic setting of the Liège Opera, this event brought together more than twenty local gin producers to celebrate this much-loved spirit drink.
The choice of venue was simply perfect, with its historic architecture and peaceful gardens, provided a unique and memorable atmosphere for visitors. Each producer stand was carefully set up, allowing festival-goers to discover and taste an impressive variety of gins and cocktails. Discussions with the passionate producers enriched the experience, offering fascinating anecdotes and details about the artisanal manufacturing processes.
For an entry price of 22 euros, each participant received a reusable eco-cup and a stand map. Tastings included neat gins for 1 euro and fine cocktails for 10 euros. This allowed everyone to savor unique creations and leave with their favorite bottles purchased directly from the exhibitors. The varied flavors, ranging from floral notes to spicy aromas, satisfied all palates.
The organizers, did a remarkable job to ensure the smooth running of the event. Their passion for gin and attention to detail was reflected in every aspect of the festival. Safety measures and clear information on responsible consumption have been put in place, ensuring an enjoyable and safe experience for everyone.
The “Do You Speak Gin?” Festival was a real success and a memorable celebration of Belgian gin. If you are a gin lover or simply curious to discover, this event is not to be missed in its next editions. We can't wait to see how this festival evolves and which new producers join this unmissable gin celebration.
