Spirit Of North Hop

Join in this winter at the AECC for the very first 'Spirit of North Hop' festival celebrating and sampling some of the finest spirits to come out of Scotland.

Discover some brand new distilleries or revisit some of your old favourites. From gin to rum, whisky to vodka, and liqueurs to tequila. Each distillery (with 35 to choose from) will be offering up 5ml samples and if you like what you taste you can then purchase a perfect serve, cocktail, or bottle to take home.

Each session will also feature 'spiritual sessions' offering you a chance to 'meet the distillers', a DJ setting the scene in the 'Botanical Lounge', some epic street food vendors, a prosecco bar for those fancying something a little fizzy, the North Hop Bar with craft beer, cider, soft drinks, special guest spirits, and a few local market traders with unique products to browse and buy.
