Bombay Sapphire Sunset
Tanqueray Blackcurrant Royale
Tanqueray is often considered the global benchmark for dry gin and their Blackcurrant Royale seems destined to play a similar role when it comes to infused gins. This bold new gin, which was inspired by Charles Tanqueray's wandering travels through Europe in the 1800s, combines a London dry gin base with juicy French blackcurrants and an exotic twist of vanilla. With a striking purple colour and a fruity, floral finish, it's a gin fit for kings and queens so feel free to get a little fancy and put on a high tea in its honour. Serve your finger sandwiches and petit fours with a Royale Spritz, made using Tanqueray Blackcurrant Gin, prosecco, sparkling soda water and blackberries to garnish.

Mirabeau Dry Rosé Gin
Mirabeau have made a name for themselves with their array of beautiful dry pink wines, made with grapes from some of the best vineyards in Provence. Now they’ve added a rosé gin to their lineup, and with a gold medal from the 2020 World Gin Awards already under their belt, it’s clear the quality has crossed over.
Inspired by the abundance of aromatic botanicals growing wild on their estate – after all, Provence is not only known as the spiritual home of rosé, but also the perfume capital of the world – Mirabeau’s gin uses a 100% grape-based neutral spirit (as opposed to the standard grain base), which adds a subtle fruitiness to the palate. It’s then infused with botanicals including lemon, coriander, lavender and jasmine, as well as rosé wine. The rosé flavour is subtle but makes the gin rounded enough to be sipped alone or, alternatively, to use in a French 75 cocktail. You can even replace the Champagne with sparkling rosé for an unforgettable floral experience.
Silent Pool Gin
This UK brand is making high-end artisan gin with incredible attention to detail. The distillery is situated adjacent to its namesake, The Silent Pool, which is in the heart of the Surrey Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (yep, that’s a real place). This mysterious body of water dates back to the Ice Age and is renowned for its tranquility, natural beauty and unsettling history.
Silent Pool's signature gin contains 24 carefully chosen botanicals, all of which are ethically sourced and work together in unison to create a complex, unique flavour. The juniper isn't overly pronounced and, much like wine, people may taste different notes depending on their palate on the day. Our favourite way to enjoy it? Mix an award-winning G&T by serving Silent Pool Gin with a generous handful of ice, a dash of tonic and a twist of orange peel. Serve it to your friends and they won't be silent for long!
