“As a new comer to gin in 2017 i quickly discovered how diverse gin can be across the world, very much supported by my tri-monthly boxes. I recently upgraded to monthly but can't afford to continue that indulgence, so am going back to the excitement of getting my quarterly boxes! So much more than just a gin. The variety of tonics, the nibbles, the magazine. All fantastic value and generally taste amazing. Thanks CGC”

Hey Michelle, Thank you so much for your review! I'm delighted that we've able to introduce you to different botanicals and tasting notes that have broadened your horizon of gin! It's also great to hear that the added extras are going down well too. :-) Best wishes, Alba

“Bought the Christmas box for a friend and was lucky enough to get it for half price. Unfortunately I wrote the wrong house number down and my friend didn’t receive the box. Craft gin club were brilliant and sorted another one out to be delivered to the right address. My friend is absolutely over the moon and loves the gin. Excellent value for money and I will definitely be ordering more.”

“If i could give 0 stars i would . I asked to pause till march !! But yet they STOLE £40 off me middle of Dec ! . I dont know about anyone else but £40 in December is alot of money. I asjed in November to pause till march as im away . But no they are still taking money !!!! I will tell my bank so they can block it . ...buy your gin in the supermarket is the best way . Companies like this just rip off the consumer. ...... so angry”

“My first box and I am delighted. I am not a gin expert only previously bought standard gins. The Copperfields Christmas gin is so good. I have frozen slices of clementine and popped them in with ice and merchant hibiscus. Really refreshing. First box is a first in every way. Thank you and a happy Christmas to all .”

“Just received our December box and could not be happier. Great selection of festive products and the gin itself looks amazing! This is our third purchase from Craft Gin Club and all of them have been excellent. Especially like the "Ginned" magazine, which is always an interesting read and has loads of useful recipes and advice. All in all, a great product and good value for money. Keep doing what your doing guys!”

“Really great idea, easy to use, fantastic as a gift as not only do you get the full size bottle but all the extras are a great touch, making it good value for money (even better if you sign up with a 50% off code!).Delivery process has been smooth and the Christmas box is awesome! Nice to have ideas for new cocktails and to try new gins every month. LL-ZO2W6ZV5 will get you your first box for £20!”

“I’m proud to say I’ve been a Craft Gin member since they appeared on Dragon Den where, as they say nowadays, they “smashed it!!” and I’ve not been disappointed once! CG’s customer service is, without doubt, 5*, payment & delivery is immensely polished with email notifications along the way...even giving you a heads-up on additional garnish, where necessary, to put on you shopping list. At 40 quid a month, a tenner a week, it’s well worth it....so treat yourself, it’s like buying yourself a Christmas present every month of the year, and I love the way they keep the contents a complete surprise every time!!! Keep it up guys!!!”

“Ordered the Wessex Gin recently as a little extra treat - and because there was a free shipping offer. Came home a couple of days ago to a Royal Mail card informing me it had been delivered - not to my house it hadn't - nor to the neighbour Royal Mail postie said they had dropped it into - It had poofed at some point. Customer service could not have been more helpful and prompt answering emails - to check it was the Wessex that had been delivered and then taking it upon themselves to rectify the issue by replacing the order rather than expecting me to wait for Royal Mail to respond. Top quality products and 5* service.”
