Anyone who knows me knows I'm a massive fan of Scottish gins. Having two Glaswegian parents and four Scottish grandparents I will always describe myself as Scottish...despite the fact that I was born in England, technically I'm full of Scots blood, right? My gin collection is filled with a very large number of gins from… Continue reading ISGD 2020 – The Orkney Distillery

Burrell’s Dry Gin – Burrell’s Breeze
Well my lovelies, you all know how much I love a gin with a good story and in Massingberd-Mundy it would seem I've stumbled upon a pretty good one.

Jaffa Cake Gin – Negroni
When I was contacted by Atom Brands and asked if I fancied trying their Jaffa Cake Gin, I'm not going to lie, I was a little dubious. I immediately heard chants of "#StopFuckingWithGin" ringing in my ears and was worried this could be a very sticky, sickly, sweet drink. However, knowing that Atom Brands were… Continue reading Jaffa Cake Gin – Negroni
Chapel Down Bacchus Gin – Garden of England Cocktail
Chapel Down I was absolutely thrilled to be invited to the first, private, ‘Gin Masterclass’ session with Chapel Down’s very own Managing Director, Mark Harvey a couple of weeks ago. Made with a grappa and wheat base spirit, the botanicals in Chapel Down Bacchus Gin are designed to mirror the flavour profile of the Bacchus… Continue reading Chapel Down Bacchus Gin – Garden of England Cocktail
Cantium Gin
After what has felt like an absolute age, I've finally got this parenting malarkey nailed enough to be able to get back into my writing again.

Nicholson Gin
Now, unless you were living under a rock for the month of July, you must have noticed that things went a touch crazy on the sporting side of life.

Lyme Bay – Pink Grapefruit Gin
A wee while ago I was contacted by Lyme Bay Winery to ask if I fancied trying out some of their gin. I'd seen a flurry of posts across social media and was most definitely intrigued..."Yes please!" Lyme Bay Winery have two different gins under their belts and I was keen to see which would… Continue reading Lyme Bay – Pink Grapefruit Gin
Norfolk Gin
A couple of weeks ago I heard from a lovely lady called Hannah from Plain Speaking Agency, she contacted me on behalf of Norfolk Gin, asking if I would like to sample their gin. They have just launched their new 10cl mini decanter, which in my opinion is a great size to buy if you're… Continue reading Norfolk Gin
