The gin craze is back ! There seem to be distillers popping up in the most unusual places. No longer just confined to Plymouth and London. Cambridge. Cornwall and Kent have all thrown their vats ( I apologise for that one) into the ring. We particularly enjoyed “Dartmoor Gin”. one for those who like lots of botanicals. What better way can there be to sharing your next investment with a graduated set of five period gin glasses.
