Our January 2021 Gin of the Month box is the perfect way to start the year!
Jan 4, 2021
With our January 2021 Gin of the Month box, we’re getting the year off to a deliciously fresh start.
Full of wintery treats to beat those post-Christmas blues and including an exclusive gin from one the UK’s most beautiful and dramatic national parks, this is one truly gin-credible way to enjoy January.
Take a look at everything that lies in wait for our lucky members this month.
This beautiful craft gin from the Lake District captures the freshness and magnificence of its fell-strewn home in the north of England like few other gins have ever done before. Truly refreshing, it’s a wonderful way start to the year!
Juniper-led and rich with clean citrus and warm spice notes, this gin is fresh on the nose while the elegant and delectable palate has a wonderful mouthfeel and flavour that lasts long into the finish. Delicious!
TwelveBelow offers what it describes as the UK’s first-ever 100% natural, genuinely low-sugar tonic waters, with only 12 calories per serving. And with their incredible British fruit flavours that have been inspired by their founder’s garden, each one of their tasty mixers ticks all of our boxes for a fresh start to the year!
Our lucky members will receive both TwelveBelow’s Pear & Cardamom Tonic and their Rhubarb & Ginger Tonic. Both are packed with delicious fruit extracts that make them a perfect match for gin.

With its refreshing mix of juniper, lemony citrus and warm spice flavours, Pennington’s Lakeland Moon Snowfell Gin is the perfect match for the rich, fruity pear notes and aromatic cardamom tones of TwelveBelow Pear & Cardamom Tonic. Finished with a delicious duo of dried apple slices and cinnamon garnishes, this is one truly special tipple.
If you’re a long-standing member of Craft Gin Club then you will recognise Olly’s straight away, as their olives had us salivating when we included them in our May 2020 Gin of the Month box. So to say that we are excited about their pretzels is an understatement!
Our members can find either their Salted Original Pretzel Thins or their Multi-Seed Sesame Pretzel Thins in this month’s box and we can’t wait for them to give them a try. What’s more, both flavours have 80% less fat and 45% fewer calories than your average crisp. What better excuse do you need to grab this nibble to go with your Perfect G&T?

PURA Soda is the drinks brand that’s out to change the world for the better, and they believe that it’s the small things that we can do every day that really make the difference. For them, that means using 100% recyclable containers for their stunning beverages and working to help better their community through initiatives like urban greening projects and downstream recycling.
Their Cucumber & Lime edition is brimming with fragrant cucumber and tangy lime flavours that are an amazing partner to gin. And, as all of their drinks are low-calorie, made with no colourants and only natural flavours, it’s a great, healthier soda to start the year with.
PURA Soda Cucumber & Lime is now available on our online shop!
Fun and fabulous, Doisy & Dam are purveyors of gleefully nostalgic chocolate treats that we can not get enough of here at Craft Gin Club HQ. Each of their mouth-watering snacks is made with only the best, ethically-sourced cocoa from Northern Columbia from Luker Chocolate, who make sure their cocoa farmers are treated fairly and are helped to empower themselves. Socially conscious and delicious, their chocolate is a must-try.
In our January box, our lucky members will find either Doisy & Dam Ballers or their D&Ds. Their D&Ds are divine dark chocolate drops that are coated in a crunchy, sweet shell and Ballers are biscuits coated in dark chocolate. Both are utterly scrumptious, proudly free from palm oil and go brilliantly with a gin cocktail or two.
Esprala refuses to compromise on taste when it comes to healthier, low-sugar fruit drinks. Their beautiful sparkling soft drinks include no added sugar or preservatives, are only 43 calories and yet they are still bursting with flavour.
Their Apple & Red Plum edition is a sparkling fruit drink that also includes guarana and green tea. It’s perfect for mixing with gin, especially in our January 2021 Cocktail of the Month (see below).

Their Sweet ‘n’ Salty Almond bar is coated with Swiss chocolate made with care and attention to detail over three days. The result is a nutty, chocolatey treat that has the perfect balance of sweet and salty notes that are amazing when enjoyed on their own or with your favourite gin drinks.
From Pennington Spirits & Liqueurs, the amazing distillery behind this month’s Gin of the Month, comes this gorgeous, sweet, award-winning liqueur that’s bursting with the yummy almond and raspberry flavours that we all know and love from a classic Bakewell tart.

Their Cayenne & Rosemary edition is herby and fiery in all the right places to get your taste buds tingling. Yum!
Every month, our wonderful members receive carefully selected garnishes and a new bespoke cocktail syrup in each of their Gin of the Month boxes. They can then use those to make our unique Cocktail of the Month and our monthly Perfect G&T.
In their January 2021 Gin of the Month box, our members find our floral, sweet and delectably rich Lady of the Lakes cocktail syrup, with which they can make our January 2021 Cocktail of the Month, Craft Gin Club’s Lady of the Lakes.
