Me, I want to get my hands on the Four Pillars Bloody Shiraz and Isle of Harris gin 🙂
LeGINdary says
What a great top 10. More things to add to my wish list’
Ps. 4 pillars distillery is right near my house! Can easily get bloody Shiraz for you if it’s hard to get where you are! Let me know, we can trade!!
Katie Hughes says
Haha if it’s near your house then it’s a long way away from me in the UK lol! Still a good idea though!
Andy Cigars says
I’m envious! The UK is so much more of a hotbed for innovative and fun new gins! I will keep my eyes open for these on my side of the pond! 😉
Katie Hughes says
There are some great American gins Andy – have you tried FEW or St George? NY Distilling company has a great selection too!
Lynsey says
Isle of Harris Gin I need to try, along with Daffy’s Gun. Rock Rose Gin is made 25mikes from where I live….
Quite floral but lovely. Also love Edinburgh Gin.
Katie Hughes says
Isle of Harris is definitely worth a try Lynsey – subtly savoury with the sugar kelp ? Rock Rose and Edinburgh also great choices – I’m jealous you are so close!!
