Here’s what’s inside this month’s Craft Gin Club:-
Gin Of The Month: The Orkney Distillery Kirkjuvagr Yuletide Gin (42% ABV / 70cl)
For the last month of 2021, there’s a very special exclusive edition gin just for Craft Gin Club subscribers. The Orkney Distillery Kirkjuvagr Yuletide Gin is a stylish way to wrap up the year and as the club say so themselves, this gin is essentially Christmas in a bottle.
From the beautiful bottle to the traditional Christmassy notes of Nutmeg and Cinnamon, this gin is like no other. It has an aromatic and subtly sweet blend of Cinnamon, Citrus, Clove and Cardamom, with festive botanicals such as Frankincense and Myrrh. A burst of warming Ginger and Nutmeg finish it off nicely.
Drinks & Mixers: Bibite Polara Melograno, The London Essence Co Pomelo & Pink Pepper Tonic & Ginger Ale
To compliment your festive gin, there’s a mix of drinks included such as the Bibite Polara Melograno for the Cocktail of the Month (recipe in your GINNED! magazine), and a selection from The London Essence Co with their Pomelo & Pink Pepper Tonic and Ginger Ale.
Extras: Amarula Ethiopian Coffee Liqueur, Angostura Cocoa Bitters, Fireside Fizz Cocktail Syrup & Orange and Red Currant Garnish
No festive box is complete without those finishing touches and here we have a whole range of extras to liven up your cocktails this month. Explore the rich aromas of Amarula Ethiopian Coffee Liqueur and Angostura Cocoa Bitters, or add a drizzle of the Fireside Fizz Cocktail Syrup with a fruity garnish for something different.
