Very pleased with my recent gift of @MuffLiquorCo potato-based gin
Strong orange aroma upon opening. The spud base is notably softer than the 'usual' dry gins
The overall taste is a delightful citrus. I'm definitely into the Muff

Bravo @dog_peover for a cracking Fish & Chips. Truly great plate, smashing outdoor atmosphere and top service
Not sure I'll be buying any of this #EngineOil #Gin
Currently on sale @TheValeCottage @Manchester
Any feedback, anyone?
Nice start to a weekend evening. Green Tea, Lemongrass and Yuzu notes of #TheMelodist by #TwoTykesDistillery perfectly complimented by @FeverTreeMixers #Mediterranean
Doesn't get much better

Major recruitment coup. Just negotiated a contract securing the services of Olga Bagrova as our latest bar person
Picked up #MataroaGin by #Melissanidi distillery whilst in #Rhodes #Greece
True #Mediterranean flavour bomb with, amongst others, orange, lemon, bay, coriander, chamomile, plus a touch of #lavender (?)
Here, with @FeverTreeMixers #Med

Managed to hold on to this since Winter until a warm Spring evening @homeofbombay #Sapphire #Sunset
Usual level of excellence from Bombay with the addition of warm spices and dried Mandarin peel. Cheers!

My dear Mother, 96 years old. Tries her best to keep up with current affairs:
- Eeh what are we going to do about Stalin?
Oh Mum!
#ukraine #putin @BBCNews @bbclysedoucet @OrlaGuerin @JamWaterhouse @leeharris
Time to try my Bride's Xmas gift
@tanquerayusa #Royale
Stunning colour with @SchweppesGB #Tonic makes this a totally different #G&T experience
The taste? Well, guess for yourselves, although I couldn't honestly distinguish them as "French" #blackcurrants
Not to my taste but...
#Italian #Gin & #Tonic inspired by @Ginofantastico - comprising @HouseOfBoe gin @PalliniUS #limoncello @SanPelligrino2 #limon @SchweppesGB and lemon twists
The taste of Summer. Soon to be on the menu at #TheBlackHorse

Both myself @GarryTD and @RowanStephenson are good friends with a Russian lady who has lived happily in the UK for many years. How sad it is that she currently feels demonised and ashamed of her heritage thanks to the maniac that is #VladimirPutin
#WilliamGrant have distilled this very refreshing Lemon #Verano - Summer. Released with stable mates Passion Fruit and Watermelon. Infused with Spanish Lemons. Not too tart, making it an easy garden tipple with @SchweppesGB Tonic
Available @thebottleclubuk
May I recommend @thecooktwit to my followers to add to their 'list'
Good, down-to-earth reviews. Some fine-dining but also the food of the common man, always with humour and never taking himself too seriously
#sundayroast #ThePiedBull #newtonlewillows Not bad at all….the beef croquette in the Yorkshire pud was particularly good 👍
From @bodegaswilliams comes the delicate, yet very enjoyable #Zafiro distilled in #Jerez
Gentle lemon notes with plenty of #juniper and a touch of #vanilla
A great newcomer for me #ginlovers
#YouDeserveSpain #Spain
Available @amazon but currently out of stock @MasterOfMalt
Say what you like about @AldiUK they certainly hit the spot in most areas, incl. their alcohol offering. This Pink Grapefruit & Orange Gin does exactly what you'd expect. Bitter sweet notes and at under £14 for a 40% session gin, what's not to like!
Courtesy of @thecooktwit I'm sampling the unique #BisonGrass #gin from @3wrensgin distilled at Cholmondley, with the distinctive herb grown on site. A truly original mix of grassiness and citrus notes makes for a subtle, yet refreshing hit on the palate 👏👏👏
Fascinating visit to @aberdistillery #Abergwyngregyn #gin #AberFalls #smallbatchgin #Wales
Great to see where one of my favourites comes from
Happy Fathers’ Day to me! Time enjoy Lakes #PinkGrapefruit from @LakesDistillery
Deliciously refreshing, the subtle citrus notes hiding the meaty 46% ABV
Truly memorable, cheers Son, you certainly know how to pick ‘em!
