Elephant gin 

Handcrafted in Germany with rare African botanicals, this is a premium gin brand that you might not have heard of before. All of Elephant gin’s ingredients are hand-selected, their bottles are custom-made and their labels hand-written, you can really tell they care about their gin and the people who are drinking it. 

Harrogate Tipple gin 

This is another small-batch distillery and you will find Harrogate Tipple in the Ripley Castle Estate in Harrogate. Most of their botanicals are grown in the 750-year-old gardens within the Castle walls and they have some unique flavours, such as blueberry and gooseberry, to try.

Suntory Roku gin 

Many know the name Suntory as a pioneer of Japanese Whisky, but again, this is a brand that has branched out to gin too. Roku translates as the number six and inside every bottle of gin, you will find six botanicals that are sourced in Japan. Many of the high-quality ingredients are also uniquely Japanese, so it isn’t your standard gin. 

Fire & Ice gin 

As craft distillers, Fire & Ice ensure authenticity throughout their brand by using more natural homegrown ingredients in their spirits. Their gin is as much about the people behind the product as it is the finished spirit, and it encompasses their heritage of being Highland Crofters. 

OPIHR gin 

This gin is inspired by the adventurous spirit of the merchants travelling thousands of miles to trade exotic spices and botanicals from distant lands. OPIHR gin is crafted with hand-picked botanicals in the oldest distillery in England where gin has been traditionally made since 1761.
