Gin Galore: 180+ Reasons to Fall in Love

Forget everything you think you know about gin. Yard 32 isn’t just serving gin; it’s curating it. With over 180 gins from around the globe, this is a place where your palate takes a world tour without leaving your seat.

Imagine this:
A balloon glass (because size does matter when it comes to gin) cradled in your hand, filled with crystal-clear tonic, shimmering ice cubes, and an artistic garnish that’s practically whispering, “Take a sip.” The wide rim isn’t just for show—it’s designed to release the gin’s aromatic botanicals straight to your senses.

Every bottle tells a story, from bold and citrussy to floral and complex. Some gins are infused with rare botanicals you’ve never heard of, and others are old classics, but all of them? Exceptional.

Tapas: More Than Just a Side Dish

What’s gin without a few small plates to keep it company? Enter the tapas—and not just your basic olives and nuts. Oh no, Yard 32 takes it to the next level with over 50 varieties of these Spanish delights.

• Cold Tapas: Think marinated olives, Manchego cheese, and rich, silky Iberico ham that melts on your tongue.
• Hot Tapas: Dive into chopitos (battered baby squid), patatas bravas smothered in spicy tomato sauce, and juicy albóndigas (Spanish meatballs) swimming in rich, smoky gravy.
• Vegetarian Delights: Yes, even the herbivores are in for a treat with roasted peppers, garlicky mushrooms, and more.

Each tapa isn’t just food; it’s a conversation starter, a bite-sized celebration of bold flavours that perfectly complement your gin adventure.
