“I love the anticipation of my monthly Craft Gin Club box arriving, what deliciousness will it contain?, that's part of the joy of my subscription. It is great value for money at £40, most craft gins sit around £36 to buy alone without receiving the information packed magazine which focuses on the distiller and the story of their journey to producing that specific month's gin. And of course there are all the other little extras: new tonics, mixers, snacks etc. and sometimes a miniature of something to compliment the gin like a vermouth to make a martini or a syrup to try a new cocktail. The new dried garnish packs are now included too. But without all of that, the hero of the box to me is the gin - that is what makes me happy. Gins that I may not be able to get anywhere else at all because they have been distilled especially for club members only or striking gins from around the UK and the world that expand my knowledge and tickle my taste buds. I have been a member for over three years and haven't been disappointed once. Customer service is excellent, the team at CGC really care about their members. My box has never been late either. I highly recommend Craft Gin Club.”

“The very best Club I have ever joined. Soooo exciting waiting to find out what’s coming, it’s like Christmas every month. I’ve been a member from the very beginning and have now subscribed again, I love it so much. If I lived nearer I would most definitely be applying for a job. So passionate 🥰🍸”

“The beginning of the month is always an exciting time, as it means my monthly box of gin will be arriving! From the moment you open the box, it's a journey. Poring over the assorted snacks and tonics, as well as a bottle of refreshing juice, admiring the dried garnishes and paging through the very informative magazine, filled with recipes for cocktails and delicious desserts. And then, of course, you have THE GIN! A full sized bottle of botanical loveliness, each month something completely new... six months of the year the gin comes from UK craft gin distilleries, and the other six months of the year, from all around the world... Bolivia, Australia, Sweden, Norway, France, Canada have given us some fabulous gins. I'm already looking forward to my next box... why don't you join me and become part of the best gin club in the UK!!!”

“Great Gin spoilt by the gross tonic, the aftertaste of stevia destroys the subtle interplay of the aromatics! Tried it with various flavours of Fevertree and Fentimans and it was well lush! Please, please, please allow us the option of saying no to 'diet' tonics in our subscription; I'm an adult and capable of controlling my calorific intake and every 'sweetener' on the market messes with my taste buds and is not welcome in my G&T!!!”

“Oh my word I’ve absolutely loved the August Manly Gin I received today it is amazing .. we had a family BBQ tonite so it was perfect timing to open out first ever Craft Gin club box And how appropriate was it to know it had come from the exact same place my daughter had lived for the last 2 monrhs ...but unfortunately her plan of living the dream for a year in beautiful Manly was cut short when she had an accident and had to return to UK So thank you for letting us experience the 5 star taste of such an awesome place with an outstanding Gin flavour of the Manly Gin”

“Craft Gin Club is amazing and I love it!🥰 I've been a member for 3 years now and I look forward to each and every box that I'm due to receive. The contents are always great and value for money. It's nice to experience rare gins that you cannot buy locally🍸💛 The customer service is second to none!⭐💯 Especially when I wanted to freeze my membership whilst I was pregnant with my first baby who is now 6 months old! Couldn't thank Craft Gin Club enough! I look forward to lots more deliveries and wish the business a great success for the future! 🎉🍹🍾”
