Craft Gin Club Celebrates Easter With Hot Cross Bun Gin Collaboration

The Craft Gin Club (www.craftginclub.co.uk) is the UK's largest gin subscription club, with over 100,000 gin-loving members trusting its gin experts and connoisseurs to seek out the very best artisan gins from the UK, and around the world, every month. 

This Easter, the expert curators and mixologists at the Craft Gin Club have worked with Cornwall's Tarquin's Gin team to bring gin fans a stunning limited-edition craft gin that's perfect for Easter and beyond, Tarquin's Hot Cross Bun Gin (ABV 42%, £37.00 per 70cl bottle), available exclusively from Craft Gin Club (and no membership needed!).

There's a fantastic symphony of mouth-watering, delicious spice and dried fruit flavours, which you'd normally find in a hot cross bun, it is a beautiful edition that no gin fan will want to miss! 

Warming Easter spices are joined by rich juniper on the nose and some wonderful, sweet fruit notes on the smooth palate. 

And they all last long into the luxurious finish. Ideal served with a premium Indian tonic or a high quality ginger ale and garnish with fresh orange and a sprig of rosemary.

The botanicals included are: juniper, fresh lemon, fresh orange, fresh grapefruit, orris root, green cardamon, bitter almond, coriander seed, cinnamon, angelica root, violets, carrot, mulberries, vanilla pods and dried orange peel and Pedro Ximenez sherry.

Also new to Craft Gin Club for Easter is the Egg Royale Chocolate Liqueur (ABV 15%, £25.00 per 70cl bottle), which has to be the best chocolate Easter egg for grownups for 2023! Nestled in a gorgeous box of gold and teal, discover a chocolate egg shaped glass bottle filled to the brim with creamy chocolate liqueur from the creative minds at Gravity Drinks. 

Made with the finest cocoa, lashings of real cream and mellow touches of vanilla, the chocolate liqueur is wonderful simply served over ice or mixed into cocktails, it also makes for a luxurious ice cream topping and it's a great way to add a boozy kick to chocolate icing for an adults-only celebration cake.
