To ask for gin advice?!

Never really drank gin myself, and I want to get a gift set of gins for a family members birthday. It will contain 3 medium bottles.

She likes Gordon's gin, if she likes that does anyone have any advice as to what other 'fancy' flavours she may like?

TIA

I can recommend Sherlock & Sons

Totally yum, 3 different varieties, and they do a Miniatures set which is perfect for a gift. Or just for yourself Grin

Salcombe gin is fabulous!

I love a mermaid gin with aromatic tonic and a slice of grapefruit.

I tried the Seville gin, and actually found the Beefeater Blood Orange gin to be much nicer, probably cheaper too!

Plymouth gin and Harris gin are my favorits, especially the Harris, stunningly beautiful bottle as well, although can be difficult to get hold off!

Just saw your post that you've bought something, that sounds ace, I'd love that as a gift!

Thanks @TheLovleyChebbyMcGee I hope she likes it 🤞 being in the shop did make me tempted to try gin properly myself.

I just link gin with the smell of celery from when I was a teen raiding my parents alcohol cupboard 🙈
