12 Dram Collection Tasting Set
Score: 91/100
This generous gin gift set contains 12 x 30ml serves, showcasing the most unique flavours from That Boutique-y Gin Company.
Neatly packaged behind individual advent calendar-style doors, stand-out flavours include the vanilla-flecked cold brew coffee, and the sweet, caramelised spit-roasted pineapple. A great choice for the adventurous gin lover.
Gin Gin Tasting Set
Score: 89/100
Allow Malfy to transport you to the sun-dappled Amalfi coast with this four-piece citrus-soaked set. The panel's favourite was the fresh, zingy grapefruit-flavoured Gin Rosa, and the pack also includes the brand’s original gin, punchy lemon, and blood orange versions; the latter of which would make a superb spritz.
Just add creamy burrata, olives and arancini for a true taste of la dolce vita!

Hotel Gin & Tea Set Gift Box
Score: 89/100
At just under £170, this gift is more of an investment piece; however, alongside the full-size bottle of Hendrick’s iconic cucumber gin, it also contains a branded teapot to mix cocktails in, and six matching cups and saucers to serve them in. The clever box can then be repurposed to create a display case for your tea set.
As delightfully eccentric as the brand itself, we can see this set being passed down from generation to generation, for fancy G&T parties.

Flavour Discovery Tasting Set
Score: 89/100
This beautifully packaged set includes plenty of information about each of the five Bathtub flavoured gins within. It’s ideal for discovering new favourite serves, and comes in at under £20, making it excellent value.
The super sweet and spicy Damson & Bay variety proved most popular with the panel.
Gin Gift Pack with Glass
Score: 88/100
If you're looking for an extra-special gift, treat them to a full-size bottle of craft gin from premium Japanese distiller Roku.
This set contains a unique hexagonal-shaped glass to match the bottle design, while the liquid itself is bursting with cherry blossom and a hint of lemon peel.
Distillery Gin Gift Set
Score: 83/100
This set of three 50ml bottles from the quintessential London-based gin distillery would make a fantastic gift for those on a budget (or looking for a smaller treat).
With orange, lemon and classic dry gin included in the set, all are fresh tasting and smooth for a top-notch G&T. You can’t say fairer than that for under a tenner!
Premium Gin Cocktail Box
Score: 83/100
Proving there’s more to gin cocktails than a splash of tonic, NIO (which stands for “Needs Ice Only”) has created the ultimate letterbox gift containing six serves.
Standouts include the herbaceous negroni, and the sweet and citrussy gimlet, all of which use Tanqueray as the base. And better yet, the brand plants a tree with every purchase — win-win!
Gin Gift Set
Score: 81/100
If they’re a fan of Hendrick’s, we recommend the slightly more under the radar Ramsbury gin, which has a similar fresh and zingy profile.
With botanicals including locally picked juniper and quince, our testers thought it perfectly encapsulated the terroir. A cooling, refreshing serve that’s presented here with two branded glasses, ready for them to knock up the perfect G&T.
Retro Fridge Tasting Set
Score: 81/100
You can always count on That Boutiquey Gin Company to come up with a new weird and wacky flavour, and these have been packaged up in a fun retro-style fridge tin, ready for gifting.
Stand-out flavours include the powerful smoked rosemary, sweet strawberry and balsamic, and spit-roasted pineapple, with its authentic caramelised note. This set is a real winner for those who want to explore more unusual flavours.
Mermaid Gift Set
Score: 77/100
This gift set includes three mini versions of the striking cut-glass bottles from The Isle of Wight Distillery.
Made with key coastal botanicals, you can expect a clean, salty note throughout, which creates a surprisingly grown-up flavour. The fruity pink gin was still the panel’s favourite, but the classic dry and salt-infused vodka flavours are also well worth a try.
£18.95 at thewhiskyexchange.com
Haysmith's Gin Tasting Box
Score: 76/100
If you’re still searching for a special (but inexpensive) gift for your loved one, look no further. Aldi’s well-priced set contains four 30ml bottles of its own-brand gin, packaged in a decorative box, ready for gifting! From classic to sloe, there’s something for everyone.
£11.99 at Aldi (in-store only)
Wildflower Gin Set
Score: 74/100
Inspired by the Cotswold countryside, this beautifully illustrated floral selection is like walking through a summer’s meadow. That said, each flavour offers something different — from the fruity No.1 infused with sweet orange, through to the fresh and minty No.3.
Our panel was pleasantly surprised by the subtle, savoury-style flavourings of each, noting a complete lack of artificiality.
£18.00 at cotswoldsdistillery.com
12 Dram Premium Gin Collection
Score: 74/100
This premium pack offers 12 wax-sealed drams. The exact contents will remain a surprise for the giftee, but it includes a good array of quality brands (think Kyro and Four Pillars) that will impress the gin connoisseur in your life.
Our testers' favourites included Conker’s port barrel gin with its subtle, sweet spice and Ableforth's classic bathtub gin with big powerful botanicals and a creamy mouthfeel.
