Gins

Rhubarb and ginger has become one of the country`s most beloved flavours of gin and it`s thanks to creations like this from Whitley Neill.

Not quite as sweet as you`d expect, though the raspberry fruitiness does stand out. Caraway, thyme, coriander and a touch of hibiscus appear along the way.

Juniper and violet harmoniously blend in the fore, while orange oil freshness cuts through. Cardamom and cubeb heat simmers in the background.

Another brilliant fruity gin from Whitley Neill, Blackberry Gin is inspired by floral English hedgerows and it certainly shows.

Waxy citrus peels and bright juniper meld with lots of sweet, tropical, and slightly tart pineapple flavours.

A herbaceous non-alcoholic spirit from the Seedlip range. Yes, you read that right - an alcohol free spirit!

A gin that needs no introduction, sweet notes of juniper, lemon zest and fresh herbs on the nose. Lemon and juniper develop on the palate with other zesty citrus notes.

Light sweetness of fresh red fruits, with a bite of juniper and coriander underneath. Lingering zesty notes of fresh raspberry go on and on.

Distilled in a marvellously compact pot/column still combo named Prudence, Sipsmith epitomises distilling on a truly artisanal scale.

Bright citrus notes are up-front, though not one-dimensional. There`s intense sweetness, but a touch of waxy orange peel peel balancing it out in the background.
