Tarquin's Rhubarb and Raspberry Gin, 70 cl

Product Information

Absolutely not! Many gins do have added sugar to make them sweeter and this is particularly the case with gin liqueurs. However, an equal number of gins proudly claim to contain no added sugar and only use natural flavourings. We think this fabulously fruity offering from spirit aficionado Chase will have your tastebuds doing a little dance thanks to its bright, citrus flavours. Despite being predominantly sharp and citrusy, the classic spicy juniper aroma really comes through, which isn’t always the case with flavoured variants. If you’re a big fan of sharp grapefruit but typically prefer traditional dry gins, we urge you to give this a go. It’s an ideal blend of the two and not overly sweet or sugary.
