Element 8
Introduced in the summer of 2010, Elements Eight Spiced is perhaps the first super-premium spiced rum, infused with a variety of fruits and spices including cinnamon, ginger, vanilla and honey. Judging by the rave reviews this seems to have raised the stakes in a very lucrative category – replacing the old Sailor Jerry recipe as […]
Tanqueray Rangpur
Tanqueray is one of our favourite gins, so any special variant is something to be happy about. This is brilliant stuff, flavoured with Rangpur limes – a zesty and very juicy Indian variety. The results are lip-smackingly delicious. Distiller: Tanqueray Distillery | ABV: 41.3% | Price: €6.50
Gordons Gin
What makes this gin great is, obviously, the taste. I liken the aroma of cold gin to a bouquet of flowers you should smell them. Gordon’s smells sweet and piney with hints of burning alcohol…in a good way. The flavour of Gordon’s London Dry Gin essentially breaks down into five parts; evergreen, citrus, floral notes, […]
Shortcross Gin
On the nose, elderflower and elderberry give the gin some lift, but it never strays too far from a core juniper backbone. Shortcross has a classic yet contemporary flavour. Verdant notes from juniper and clover are layered with the lemony coriander spice. There’s a delicate peppery yet leafy (angelica) finish too, with an overall oily […]
Gabriel Boudier Gin
First up is the colour. It looks something like a children’s drink resembling Pedialyte or those orange hugs. I had the same sort of cognitive dissonance when drinking the Tru gin. If my Gin and Tonic isn’t crystal clear, it doesn’t feel like a gin and tonic. As for the taste it goes surprisingly well […]
Gordons Cucumber Crisp
Taste and Nose Cucumber and citrus on the nose. A tad lemon, but there’s a nice bit of juniper in here. Recognisable as not normal Gordon’s for sure. That faint vegetable note, although sweet, might be enough to push folks out of the comfort zone. Taste is weak and slightly sweet at first, culminating rapidly […]
Edinburgh
What makes Edinburgh Gin so unique and distinctive, are the carefully selected, notoriously soft Scottish botanicals, which are mixed with heather and milk thistle, and added at the final production stage. Distiller: Spencerfield Spirit Co. Distillery | ABV: 43% | Price: €5
Moet Et Chandon

Cristal
This Vintage Cristal Champagne comes with a Light gold in appearance, with fine bead and persistent mousse in this Cristal bottle, and aromas of crushed white flowers, ripe citrus and red berry fruits.
