I know all you lot have great imaginations. I am producing my own gin, just on a very small scale to be sold at local shows, markets etc. The one thing I am stuck on is a unique name which will stand out but also means something.
My late mother was brought up in Singapore and loved an afternoon gin so thought I could have a name which could conjure up that memory. I can't actually use her name as it is boring and old fashioned, think Doris or similar. This wouldn't sound very sexy or enticing for a gin!
I would love some ideas please as I can't move on with anything else until I have a name.

The first 40 years of the 18th century are sometimes known as 'Gin Craze', as gin drinking became so popular then.

I think. 'Gin Craze' is nice, and those in the know and afficinados who research these things will understand the reference and think it denotes expertise and tradition.

I think 'Craze' could become a hip word anyway, and I could imagine fans asking for a craze at the bar.

You are truly a marketing genius but just a little late Grin

Doris gin wins for me so far. The gin pun names are too tacky. I’m also interested if you are adding a flavor to another gin or if you are distilling it yourself.
I’d go for your Mums name or something that’s shows it’s local.

Gin-uinely think that the OP has lost gin-terest.
