I had a bottle of grenalls that didn't last longer than 2 years. Somehow it developed floating bits in it. So it went down the sink.
That was before I started drinking gin. Wife bought it, had a couple of drinks and then it sat in a cupboard for ages.
I've only got 4 and aim to add more.
Storage wise I was thinking of making something either out of driftwood or old pallets.

I bought this last year, a local gent's outfitters had a gin promo day, selling this at a knockdown price.The three different essences make for a bit of fun.

Anyone mix Ginger Beer/Ale with their gin?
I tried Gin/Ginger Ale (Schweppes) last night and, compared to the Gin/Ginger Beer (fevertree) combo, it was a distant 2nd.
Maybe the fevertree Ginger Ale is better.I'll maybe give that a shot next time.
Some of the spiced gins work ok with ginger ale, but I'd reserve ginger beer for spiced rum personally
I hate Rum so that's outdata:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7
One large award winner to try later.

Tried and quite enjoyed and with it's low price I might buy a few more to use for Sloe Gin.
