Anyone tried any of these?
I hate shopping in ALDI but had so many people at work say their premium range of spirits is ridiculously good. The main reason I hate shopping there is I don't like how they fling stuff through the checkout, the ridiculously tight car parks spaces, car park is always full, no local trolley drop off, etc, etc. It's all the small things. Plus the range of products is pretty limited.
So I bought their Scottish Blueberry gin - yet to try and their Saint Germont (grey goose rip off) vodka.
The vodka was like £14 and 40%. I'm astounded tbh it may replace russian standard as my go to. The gin was much more expensive at £20 for a bottle but the bottle is ceramic and fancy so it looks premium much like the saint germont.
Can anyone recommend a decent whisky from there? Ones that would rival the likes of Jura and co. It's for an avid whisky drinker who is coming over at christmas I have already spent £45 on a premium brand was going to see if he could tell which one is which. To see if they can live up to
