Normally go for Hendricks or Sipsmith but fancy a change.

Edinburgh rhubarb and ginger

Love Plymouth gin and the best bottle. Sort of 30s and solid. Still distilled in the Barbican, Plymouth.

Delphigirl · 27/04/2023 18:36

Oooh I see some other mumsnet tees of taste and distinction have already recommended it.

Dockyard gin - made just by Chatham Dockyard and is lovely

SpamhappyTootsie · 27/04/2023 18:39

Persie Gin (the Labrador one is my favourite)

Mermaid. The zest one.

Place marking for ideas.

HideTheCroissants · 27/04/2023 18:41

Mermaid Zest gin (green bottle) is fabulous.

budgiegirl · 27/04/2023 18:46

Xoriguer is my favourite, but can be hard to get. I also love Aviation, which I can get at the supermarket, so that's the one I usually drink

Twisted nose
Gin mare
Tanqueray 10

MrsWidgerysLodger · 27/04/2023 18:47

Botanist or Bathtub are both really lovely.

HomeSeck · 27/04/2023 18:48

Brockmans

Or just a classic Bombay

Mason's

Rock Rose

skilpadde · 27/04/2023 18:50

I like trying the Rock Rose special editions. At the moment, I'm enjoying their smoked orange gin.

SunshineandSangria · 27/04/2023 18:58

Brockmans heaven in a glass add a slice of orange and a couple of blueberries perfect

fussychica · 27/04/2023 19:00

Silent Pool, Carroun or Tanqueray 10 were my go to gins but recently tried Warners, lovely stuff.

GayPareeee · 27/04/2023 19:04

Harris (and gorgeous bottle too)
East London gin

Whatevergetsyouthroughthenight · 27/04/2023 19:08

There are a lot of bad ‘artisan’ gins out there. My baseline is Gordon’s, cheap but good, then going up the scale:

Bombay Sapphire, Plymouth, Tanqueray

Something more expensive (available in Waitrose) is Ramsbury Gin.

Cheers!

Whatevergetsyouthroughthenight · 27/04/2023 19:12

Ooh, Ramsbury is on offer at Waitrose £24.50 reduced from £30 for 70cl

river2 · 27/04/2023 19:12

Tarquin’s gin (it’s Cornish, in a blue
bottle) is the best gin there is!

thinkfast · 27/04/2023 19:12

Aviator gin is lovely

CallieQ · 27/04/2023 19:12

Love a pink gin... Mermaid
