Craft Gin Club’s January 2022 Gin of the Month:
Sông Cái Việt Nam Dry Gin
“This spirit is truly unique in the world of gin. The distillers have married a spectacular array of Vietnamese cultural and culinary influences – the result is a complex and trailblazing expression. It’s a spirit that whisks you away on a journey, from the sweet citrus peel on the nose to the peppery notes on the palate – not to mention flavours from botanicals you won’t find anywhere else in the world!”
This beautiful Vietnamese craft gin has been distilled in Hanoi in Northern Vietnam by Sông Cái Distillery and we are so excited to be able to give Craft Gin Club members the first opportunity to give it a try. It is utterly marvellous!
The first of its kind, Sông Cái Việt Nam Dry Gin is made using a delightfully complex mix of classic London Dry botanicals and ingredients unique to Vietnam. The nose is a bouquet of sweet citrus, spice and fruit. They continue onto the palate where they are joined by touches of honey, lychee and that quintessential juniper. The finish is long and aromatic, with soft tannins and a warm woodiness that is delicious and completely moreish.
Members can get even more Sông Cái Việt Nam Dry Gin on the Craft Gin Club online shop here!
The Artisan Drinks Co.
Yuzu Tokyo Tonic and Fiery Ginger Beer
This month, we are introducing Craft Gin Club members to a brand new tonic water from the remarkable team at The Artisan Drinks Co., Yuzu Tokyo Tonic. Wonderfully effervescent and aromatic, this stunning mixer combines the bright citrus notes of yuzu with the warm tones of cracked black pepper and the fragrance of Indonesian coriander. A limited-edition made specifically for Craft Gin Club members in conjunction with Sông Cái Distillery, it makes for the perfect G&T for those looking for out-of-the-ordinary, trend-setting drinks.
In their January 2022 box, members can also find Artisan’s Fiery Ginger Beer so that they can create our Cocktail of the Month (see below). Made with African ginger and chilli, it’s warm and vibrant and zesty in all of the right places. Yum!
Both of these mouth-watering mixers from Artisan are available to buy at this link!
Craft Gin Club’s January 2022 Perfect G&T:

The Coconut Collaborative Chocolate Little Pots
These scrumptious little pots of chocolate heaven are so creamy and rich you would never guess that they are completely plant-based.

Their Chocolate Little Pot is oh-so-delightfully chocolatey and smooth. It works brilliantly as a daytime snack or an evening dessert with a gin cocktail or two.
