Alcohol

Cranes Gin

Cranes gin (RRP £32) is handcrafted in small batches using premium cranberries from the US. Using only the finest natural ingredients Cranes gin is the perfect Valentine’s day gift for any gin enthusiast or cocktail lover.  It is fresh and fruity with the classic dryness of London Dry Gin. Cranberries are considered a superfood so its nice they manage to squeeze so many into each bottle. It also has no artificial flavours or added sugars. Cranes Drinks was founded by twin brothers Ben and Dan Ritsema who wanted to offer healthier alternatives of the drinks we like.

Four Roses Bourbon

This sweet and spicy whisky is the perfect way to celebrate your love story. The legend behind the brand is that the founder Paul Jones Jr fell for a southern belle. She then wore a corsage of four red roses to the ball to let him know she planned to say yes to his proposal. That passion led him to naming the product Four Roses (£31.95) which also features cut glass roses on the bottle. The drink tastes great neat over ice or in a cocktail. The perfectly balanced small batch bourbon has been aged for six to seven years.

Mermaid Gin

Mermaid Gin (RRP £36.70) is handcrafted in the Isle of Wight. The brand name based on the lead botanical in the gin, rock samphire sourced from the local cliffs known locally as “mermaid’s kiss”. The small batch gin also includes organic lemon zest, elderflower for the aroma and peppery grains of paradise. A smooth refreshing drink that is very invigorating.

They also have a Pink Mermaid Gin (RRP £35.80) with the flavour of fresh island strawberries giving it a subtle sweetness. It is best served garnished with strawberries. Let’s not forget that strawberries were considered a symbol of the goddess of love Venus. So, this is a splendid gift idea for your Valentine. The legend is is when two people split a strawberry they fall in love! So, let the gin work its magic!
