A DISTILLERY has taken over the Oran Mor in Glasgow's West End for World Gin Day (June 8).
Caorunn Gin has transformed the venue's outdoor area into a stunning orchard brimming with vibrant red apples for the occassion with the first 1000 guests being offered a complimentary gin and tonic.
There is also a host of interactive elements for customers to enjoy.
The Caorunn apple orchard was inspired by Caorunn’s Perfect Serve, famously known for its signature garnish of red apples which complement the refreshingly, clean and crisp flavour of the gin.
The addition of apple pays tribute to the Coul blush apple – one of the Celtic botanicals found during production in Caorunn.
The brand has also created an orchard at the Cold Town House in Edinburgh.
Sarah McDonald, brand manager at Caorunn Gin, said: ‘"We’re so excited to bring the home of Caorunn Gin to Edinburgh and Glasgow with our captivating apple orchard.
"We can’t wait to spread the joy of Caorunn, known for its Celtic botanicals and garnished with the key ingredient: handpicked red Scottish apples.
"Be one of the first to come along and enjoy a complimentary Perfect Serve on us."
Following the gin-themed celebrations, the orchard will be returning to Balmenach Distillery, the home of Caorunn in the Highlands.
The apple trees will be donated to local schools in Grantown-on-Spey.
