The Gins
With over 30 distilleries from around the world taking part, Ginsanity is the perfect opportunity for gin enthusiasts to learn more about their favourite drink, discover new ones, and have the unique chance to taste more than 50 different types of gin on offer. These include premium Japanese craft gin,
Roku, bartenders' favourite,
Tanqueray London Dry Gin, and three local Hong Kong Gins joining the scene:
Handover Gin,
Bauhinia Gin, and
Perfume Trees Gin.

Buy, buy, buy
If you like what you taste, why not take a bottle or two (or three) home with you? All bottles will be offered at a special Ginsanity discount price, so really, there's no excuse not to stock up. And don't you even worry about carrying all the heavy bottles, as the great team at Ginsanity can arrange for it to be delivered straight to your doorstep within a week!
One thing to bear in mind, the event is completely cashless. Upon arrival, guests should head to the load station, and top up their RFID Ginsanity Card with cash, credit card, or HSBC's PayMe. The card can then be used to buy whatever amazing gin you're thirsty for at all vendor stations at the festival.
Going Green
As for those who like to keep it green, you'll be glad to hear that there will be a strict
no-single-use-plastic policy at the event. Instead, guests can either bring their own tumblers, or purchase a reusable Ginsanity tumbler at the load station for just $20 (it'll also make a great souvenir that you can use over and over again!). And if you're in need to hydrate or rinse off your cups for more rounds of gin, there will be a free water fountain available on site, courtesy of
Life Solutions.
Fuel Up
Last but certainly not least, guests can keep the party going by fueling up with delicious nibbles provided by Three Blind Mice, Sausage Commitment, and a brand new restaurant, Chicken Bar.
With so much going on, you'd be truly
gin-sane to sit this one out.
