Follow the link for details of 8 new gins which are in store from Sunday, prices from £9.99 to £19.99.
My favourite Gin is their award winning Oliver Cromwell Dry Gin, in fact I've just bought a litre for £14! Must drink it by Sunday!
I'm most looking forward to the release off the Cromwell Sloe Gin priced at £9.99!!
Enjoy everybody .. :fearful:

8? Whilst i love drinking the stuff (especially on hols by the pool), i cant tell the difference between any 2, let alone 8. Different tonics tend to make more of a difference. Maybe not drinking enough of it!

If you try them side by side, neat, you'll notice a difference. Not Islay malt vs lowland malt difference but still noticeable. So I'll pick different gins depending on whether I'm having them neat or with tonic.

Sloe gin....yummy! As long as it is actual sloe berries they use rather than “flavouring’. PlIain gins for me has to be Gordon’s and fevertree tonic but other ones , Edinburgh gin is best!!

According to the website it is made using the wild sloes, so extremely good value.

Wild sloes are so much more difficult to catch than merely angry ones

Oh I don't know. Caught 700gms in Dovedale on Tuesday . Now to add them to some cheap Aldi gin for this year's batch. Still got the 94 to finish...

I second this. And third it.
Also "The botanist", and "bloom" if you like a floral gin.

Why are you capitalising like the DAILY MAIL?

You need to drink as much gin as possible and compare them. For scientific reasons of course.

8 gins you say?

The bottle label says:

Hand made in small batches, steeping wild sloes in London dry gin

I think that answers your question?

Seen that Topaz Blue one in for ages.
Exactly the same flavour as Bombay Sapphire?.... ehem, well, would be nice. :thumbsup:

Only 50cl bottles so not as good as it first looks!

buckm to gpm022000

29 Sep 17 #23

It is for the Sloe Gin at least as it works out at equivalent of £12.14 for 50cl if it came in 50cl bottles) for Tesco own brand Sloe Gin (Tesco 70cl @ £17.00)

I got the sloe gin last year and it was incredible. Be quick though. They get a set allocation of some lines and once they’re gone... that’s it!

Calling a gin after Oliver Cromwell is to irish people as offensive as having Hitler's name on there would be to Jews. Just sayin.

HALXOX to barneyonion

My thoughts exactly. Wonder if they sell it in Ireland? Doubt it...

In Tesco now and they've got Gordon's Sloe Gin in for £14.00.Had voted hot for this deal as well before saw the Gordon's on cheaper per ml

Thoughtful to buckm

If the Aldi Sloe Gin is £9.99 for 50cl then it is £19.98 per litre and still cheaper than the Tescos one (although not by much!).
Not sure though if Gordons is using real sloes or is as good.

buckm to Thoughtful

Real wild Sloe berries...

Thought it started today to be able to order online?

Can't seem to find it anywhere?

This will be why there's no sign of it anywhere online yet then :angry:

You can start purchasing the gins in-store from 1 October, with online orders available from 14 November

These all seem like a "gamble gin". Anyone tried any of these before to comment on tastes please?

Drooler

1 Oct 17 #38

The two Gin Lane 1751 - are only £21.45 elsewhere anyway.....

steevieboy4u to Drooler

1 Oct 17 #39

So it appears so hardly a massive saving although when they do become available online Aldi give free delivery

Yeah. Glad I passed though.

Whitley Neill is £20 at Tesco currently. Would rather that than the gamble at aldi
