About This Gin
Boasting the first vodka, gin, and whisky distillery in London, the East London Liquor Company have been distilling spirits for over a century.
This gin gets it unique flavour from the East London Liquor Company’s bold decision to use Darjeeling tea.
Our Opinion
By now, you must have realised we love an unusual gin. And that is is. You can really taste the difference with this gin; the flavours are unquestionably unique, and the tea flavour was definitely a risk well taken. We loved the hit of grapefruit as well, which is one of our favourite garnishes by the way.

About This Gin
Eccentric describe their Madam Geneva gin as a ‘London Dry, as it should be’! Its a very standard London Dry gin, but who said tradition was a bad thing?
Our Opinion
It really is a typical London Dry, so nothing new here then, right? There are only a couple of tiny things setting this gin apart from other London Drys. There are slight notes of liquorice, making the overall flavour slightly sweeter than other London Drys.

About This Gin
Edinburgh Gin are award-winning spirits creators, but with this one, they’ve definitely gone one step further. They have taken an iconically classic combination and transformed it into a gin liqueur.
Our Opinion
As D’s weak link is a sickly sweet dessert and is a keen cook, this combination sounded incredibly inviting to him. Having also previously tried a rhubarb gin mixed with ginger ale, he already had seriously high hopes, and we’re happy to say that he was not disappointed. Its such a great combination, and is perfect for someone with a sweet tooth!

About This Gin
As you have probably realised, Edinburgh Gin love to create fabulously fruity inventions, and this gin is no exception. Plum and vanilla have been paired to make this amazingly sweet and easy drinking gin – another one for those with a sweet tooth.
Our Opinion
Again, adoring all things sweet, D absolutely adored this gin. It’s super sweet, easy to drink, and almost festive. A perfect gin to drink neat, or if you’re feeling particularly cheeky, try it with a tipple of Prosecco!

About This Gin
Eden Mill produce a number of premium Scottish gins, and use only the finest locally sourced botanicals. It is the rose petal and hibiscus botanicals that give this ‘Love Edition’ it’s notable pink hue.
Our Opinion
This gin has quite a strong floral taste, so it may not be everyone’s cup of tea. However, it is certainly not a bad choice or an offer that you’d refuse.
