About this deal

This good value gin hails from Italy’s Amalfi Coast and makes use of native botanicals including local lemons and Sicilian pink grapefruits. Unsurprisingly it’s bursting with bright citrus freshness, alongside a tart hit of rhubarb. But it’s also a well balanced gin with classic spice notes and a proper hit of piney juniper. When aperitivo hour arrives pair it with Fever-Tree Mediterranean Tonic in a zesty G&T garnished with a slice of pink grapefruit. Then sip and embrace la dolce vita… Alc 41% Devon’s Salcombe Distilling Co makes a range of excellent gins – including alcohol-free options – and its pink offering is no exception. Inspired by the South of France (Sainte Marie is a lighthouse in the old port of Marseille) it’s pale Provençal rosé pink in colour, with a floral, herbaceous nose: thyme and orange blossom hints plus red berry fruit. The silky and sophisticated palate has appealing notes of rose, plus a decent hit of juniper and a fresh herbaceous finish. Pair with Fever-Tree Mediterranean Tonic for a summery, floral Gin & Tonic. Alc 41.4% Finland’s Kyrö distillery makes this distinctive coppery onion-skin coloured gin, using a base of rye spirit. That rye gives an interesting savoury, grainy note to the aromas and adds real depth and a creamy silkiness to the palate. Infused with fresh red berries, rhubarb and foraged Finnish lingonberries, there are also the red fruit notes you’d expect from a pink gin, alongside herbs, spices and vanilla hints. Savour it in a Martini. Alc 38.2%

The brand's head winemaker, Josh Donaghay-Spire, says the new gin is infused with the characteristics of pinot noir, including juniper, coriander, dried red berries, rose buds, citrus fruits, rosehip, angelica and grains of paradise. "The result is an aromatic pink gin with delicate aromas of red berries which perfectly balance the juniper led palate and refreshing citrus finish," he adds.

The team behind Mirabeau rosé wines make this elegant pink gin that’s inspired by, and infused with, the grapes and botanicals growing wild on their Provence estate. A base of grape spirit extracted from Mirabeau’s Forever Summer wine is combined with 12 botanicals including juniper, coriander seed, lemon peel, lavender, jasmine, bay leaf, thyme, rosemary, iris root and angelica. They give an enveloping and fragrant florality on the nose, while the palate is lifted by citrus freshness and given an earthy touch by generous herbaceousness. There’s also an underlying soft sweetness from the addition of Mirabeau’s Provence rosé to the distillation. Refreshing and enjoyable to sip on its own, although a lemon peel garnish combined with a bitter tonic, or grapefruit juice, works well to amplify the herbal and floral characters while accenting the sweetness. Alc 43% You can delight your friend or family member with a set of four of their gins. Thoughts & Memory and Valhalla are sister expressions with a delightful flavour journey, both featuring the signature botanical of mandarin. Valkyrie’s signature botanical is the unusual citrus fruit Jara, and it’s this gin which also forms the ‘base’ for their pink expression, Cranachan – a take on their granny’s favourite Scottish dessert – and features botanicals including fresh raspberries, new make malt spirit, oats and Deeside honey.
