Tarquin’s Christmas Cake Gin: We loved this festive and fragrant gin infused with the flavours of traditional Christmas cake, including rich raisins, candied peel, and warming spices. Obviously, this works well with a slice of Christmas cake or a creamy Christmas trifle for a delightful and indulgent dessert experience
Brindle Distillery – Cuckoo Cask Aged Spice Gin: A complex and flavourful gin aged in a cuckoo cask, imparting notes of vanilla, oak, and spice. It’s a bold gin that will work with a hearty steak dinner or a cheeseboard featuring bold and creamy cheeses
