Any Suggestions for Gin?
Ask a Question
My friend is a fan of gin and her booze cabinet has all the usual gins, Hendricks, Whitley, Bombay Sapphire.....so, can anyone suggest any unusual gins?
Iv bought my friend, also a gin lover the clementine M&S gin liqueur. It's in a gorgeous light up bottle. I love it so much Iv asked for it as a present myself. Think it was £18. Heres a link with pic. Also comes in Rhubard flavour.
Aldi also have a decent selection of various gins.
Pickering's do a festive Brussels Sprout Gin - https://pickeringsgin.com/products/pickerings-brussels-sprout-gin
Dà Mhìle Seaweed Gin - https://www.damhile.co.uk/shop/seaweed
Kokoro Gin Cherry Blossom Liqueur - https://kokorogin.com/product/kokoro-gin-cherry-blossom-liqueur-50cl/ - this is a nice one. Plus they do some other interesting flavours.
Oh ACR - Brussels sprout gin 
That’s just wrong! Have you tried it? I may chance a seaweed gin..
gerrykelly25 I would like to, but not sure I'd want a full bottle. Although, it might be fun to have on Christmas Day.
Some real bizarre flavours, as I like my friend Brussels sprouts are out. 
But the Cherry Blossom one sounds yummy
How about a gin box from the craft gin club or I love gin, assuming that you can buy a one off box rather than a subscription?
Not everyone likes all the flavoured and liqueur gins, last year I bought my boss Sipsmiths gin and he appeared to be genuinely pleased with it after trying.
Have you considered getting your friend a botanicals kit so that they can make it themselves? The kits have everything to flavour a gin lover's concoction.
The kits start at about about £8 and you will have to factor in a bottle of starter gin but they can be fun. Lots of places sell variations but if you get stuck then look on Etsy for Sandy Leaf Farm £7.99 or Muddy Boots Herbal Teas £12. There's even one on this site - https://www.latestdeals.co.uk/deals/best-ever-price-barcraft-gin-making-kit-gift-box-6-pieces-amazon
Tanqueray number ten on offer on Amazon for £25 delivered it’s a gorgeous bottle too and makes a lovely light after. I would play safe as lots of gin lovers don’t like the liqueurs and some purists don’t like flavoured either.

The King of Soho is also lovely and on offer too
