What size bottle was that, I've only seen it in half litre bottles.
I didn't pay for it. Thanks OcUK

Go for the one I recommended earlier - Martin Miller’s. Very fine.
I've checked mine a couple of times, no sign of it. Shame.
Two bottles have been delivered here in the last week, both unexpected.
The first was a competition prize and the second a gift from my brother in return for a couple of hi-fi separates he's having from me.
I've not tried either of these but both are supposed to be excellent.

It was a great tour, learned all about the production, all the botanicals, the effort that went into getting the recipe correct, etc.
The tour was a raffle prize from work and it came with a nice gift voucher for the shop which I exchanged for this.
As I said in the original post in this thread, before I won the tour, I'd never touched gin before. This prize was the reason I started drinking gin. It was a good prize

Travelling home from Berlin yesterday I checked the duty free for gin, expecting the prices to be no real difference from the UK (because we all know how duty free shops generally aren't that competitive).
I was pleasantly surprised. I've been wanting to get Gin Mare and Roku gin for a while and they had them both. I paid less for a 1l bottle of Gin Mare than the 700cl bottles are in the UK and the Roku was cheaper as well. I also grabbed a limited edition local gin to give that a try. They only produce 9,999 bottles/year.

Birthday present from the kids. I had this when I was on holiday on Herm last month, with Fever-Tree Elderflower tonic, it's absolutely divine.
Our local Adsa has the Fever-Tree eight packs of small mixer cans for £3.49 at the moment which is the best price locally.

Look at the very first post in this thread. You can pretty much guarantee they won't have tried that and it's excellent. Still my favourite by a clear head.
It's quite amusing to look back at this thread and realise that I started it exactly a year ago and I'd never drunk gin in my life. Over the last year, my family and friends seem to think I'm a gin expert (I'm not) and a gin addict (I'm not, honest).
I did get a few gin related Christmas presents.
Gin truffle collection
Foxdenton Damson gin liqueur
Gin - A global history book
Gin annual 2018
Handmade gin with a hint of lemon fudge
Dry gin fizz gummies
Gin & tonic candle
And three bottles of gin.
I've tried this, it's very nice indeed. I do like a junipery gin and this suits my palette really well.
Not tried this yet - At 57%, it's going to be explosive.
Haven't tried this either - I'm not really sure what to make of it - At 38.6%, does it even officially count as a gin?
