“I’m always happy with the boxes received, especially as you have no idea what will be inside. Delivery is always good, and the customer service was fab, twice my payday fell a couple of days after payment was due, so I contacted both times and the were ver helpful.”

“Absolutely love my Monthly treat to myself. There's always a great selection and the gins always amaze me either from where there from or some exquisite bottles. I enjoy making up the cocktails and there's always mixers,snacks and great quality magazine. In there you meet the maker of the gin and find out more about them and the story behind their gin. There's recipes too! Definitely worth it and you can skip any month and restart. Go on .....give it a go! 😍”

“Not the best to be honest, I tried their taster box which was excellent. I think paused my first box as I wanted to look at he website more and see what sort of thing they offered on a monthly basis. However the money still came out my account, I emailed and they told me that they couldn’t do anything about it until the box was delivered and I’d then have to pay to send it back. It arrived eventually, I thought I’d try it seeing as I’ve paid for it. I have to say I was disappointed nearly £50 on a bottle of gin, two tonics and two fizzy drinks which were disgusting, so they went down the sink. The only decent thing in the box was the measly two snacks, the vegan chocolate was not appealing at all. Safe to say I’ve completely cancelled the box and won’t be joining up again. I think it’s a complete rip off and you can buy better gin in Aldi.”

“Loving the rum, but as I get both the gin and rum boxes the snacks are pretty much the same. It would be nice if they were more different.”

“I like the variety of gin and mixers, generally the cocktails are not my taste, too sweet - I’m a martini/ negroni gal so the syrup often goes down the sink. The price is going up and because of this is consider skipping and definitely would not boost. It’s disappointing that I can’t use my reward points without having to spend £80-100, other reward schemes give vouchers you can actually use against purchases you want rather than having to spend a minimum. That said I do like the club.”

“Absolutely love the excitement of revealing the new box each month and to be able to try so many new gins that I otherwise wouldn't come across, and the snacks that come with it just top off the joy at the beginning of each month”

“Decided to leave because you stopped using Royal Mail,that was the last straw. I found the boxes repetitive in terms of snacks etc, rarely would I choose to purchase any of them and the gins have been disappointing of late. I did like the club but changing the points scheme, the constant emails and promotions of other drinks club has put me off. I'd accumulated over 10000 points but they were practically worthless. The value doesn't seem there and the ethos gone. Too corporate and greedy is how the club feels now.”

“The variety of gins is great. Some of the mixers and snacks aren’t as varied as they have been in the past. Getting rewards is good, but you have to spend quite a bit if you want to use them. The variety of ways in which you can use your rewards has reduced over the years.”

“I love the Rum boxes as much as I love the Gin boxes, the only thing I would love is for the magazines for the Rum to be as big and as glossy as the Gin. I know they'll get there eventually there eventually.”

“I find some of the ‘extras’ in the box, are not appealing to me. I don’t like the syrups, finding them too sweet & mindful of extra calories.”
