<p><strong>Best bottle design</strong></p><p>A gin that <em>looks </em>as great as it tastes – the aqua blue of the Silent Pool bottle is mesmerising. A delicious mix of chamomile, lavender and honey flavours, it’s made on the Albury Estate in the Surrey Hills, so it’s a real product of its location. Wrapping up a bottle of this will definitely earn you brownie points.</p>

<p><strong>Best flavoured gin gift</strong></p><p>Give a taste of Italian sunshine with a bottle of Malfy gin. The colourful bottles make a brilliant addition to a bar cart, whilst the gin itself lives up to the promise too.

<p><strong>Best for music fans</strong></p><p>Brian May, Queen’s legendary guitarist, has joined forces with Portobello Road Distillery to create The Red Special Gin. It’s a premium London Dry Gin infused with sage and calamansi orange (giving the gin a vibrant citrus finish on the palate) grown in his own greenhouse, bringing the same hands-on inventiveness behind his iconic homemade guitar to a bottle that’s as collectible as it is giftable.</p><p><strong>Available from:<br></strong><a href="https://portobelloroaddistillery.com/products/portobello-road-distillery-x-brian-may-red-special-gin" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Portobello Road Distillery (£39)</a></p><h3 id="beefeater-london-dry-40-abv-093ddb45">Beefeater London dry (40% ABV)</h3>

<p><strong>Best classic gin</strong></p><p>Nothing beats a classic, and Beefeater is arguably the grandfather of gins. Crafted in central London, the distilling process still utilises copper pot stills to this day and, from the distillery’s home in Kennington, you can see directly into the Oval cricket ground. With juniper at its heart and balanced with botanicals, Beefeater is best when simply mixed with tonic and ice. It never goes wrong as a decent bottle to give on special occasions, and is widely available in supermarkets if you need something last-minute.</p>

<p><strong>Best crowd-pleasing gin</strong></p><p>Produced by Berry Bros &amp; Rudd (the oldest wine and spirits merchant in the UK), this gin takes some beating. Expect to find citrus, cardamom and lashings of all-important juniper. No.3 subscribes to the ‘if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it<em>’ </em>mentality, and is all the better for it.

<p><strong>Best Scottish gin</strong></p><p>Scottish gin Ben Lomond draws inspiration from Loch Lomond, using botanicals from the surrounding peaks to create vibrant flavoured gins alongside its classic Original. Our favourite is the newest Blood Orange and Pink Grapefruit, a zesty citrus gin inspired by vibrant Scottish sunsets. The grapefruit adds a sherbety touch to the sweet orange for a versatile bottle.

<p><strong>Best traditional English gin</strong></p><p>When it comes to flavour, chefs know more than most. Hepple is distilled in the North East and is the brainchild of well-known chef and forager, Valentine Warner, and it shows. This is a gin made with passion and flavour at the very heart of it, and can be enjoyed simply over ice.</p><p><strong>Available from:</strong><br><a href="https://www.amazon.co.uk/Hepple-Gin-70-cl/dp/B016OLCQQE/?tag=bbc00-21&amp;ascsubtag=bbcgoodfood-338809" target="_blank" rel="sponsored" data-id="iframe-0-anchor-71">Amazon (£36.99)</a><br><a href="https://www.majestic.co.uk/spirits/hepple-gin-49947" target="_blank" rel="sponsored noopener noreferrer">Majestic (£25)</a><br><a href="https://www.masterofmalt.com/gin/moorland-spirit-company/hepple-gin/" target="_blank" rel="sponsored noopener noreferrer">Master of Malt (£39.50)</a></p><h3 id="shivering-mountain-premium-dry-gin-40-abv-700fbb1d">Shivering Mountain premium dry gin (40% ABV)</h3><ul><li><strong>Available</strong> from <a href="https://shiveringmountain.com/product/premium-dry-gin/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-id="iframe-0-anchor-72">Shivering Mountain (£39.50)</a></li></ul>

<p>Everything about Shivering Mountain is inspired by its Peak District location. The name comes from Mam Tor, the mountain overlooking the distillery, known locally as Shivering Mountain. Premium bottle Botanicals in the dry gin include gorse, heather, bilberries and sloes, adding extra depth to a classic London dry style gin. The dramatic bottle design makes it a great gift, too.</p><p><strong>Available from:<br></strong><a href="https://shiveringmountain.com/product/premium-dry-gin/" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-id="iframe-0-anchor-73">Shivering Mountain (£39.50)</a></p><h3 id="martini-riserva-speciale-ambrato-18-abv-2508a07f">Martini riserva speciale ambrato (18% ABV)</h3><ul><li><strong>Available</strong> from <a href="https://www.awin1.com/cread.php?id=489797&amp;clickref=bbcgoodfood-338809&amp;awinmid=400&amp;p=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.thewhiskyexchange.com%2Fp%2F29851%2Fmartini-riserva-speciale-ambrato-vermouth-di-torino" target="_blank" rel="sponsored">The Whisky Exchange (£19.95)</a></li></ul>

<p><strong>Best vermouth to gift </strong></p><p>Vermouth is to gin what McCartney was to Lennon: together they make a great pair, but as individuals, they’re also star performers. For anyone who is building a decent collection of different gins, try giving them a bottle of Martini’s latest. It’s spicy yet delicate, with blossoming elderflower notes.</p><p><strong>Available from:<br></strong><a href="https://www.awin1.com/cread.php?id=489797&amp;clickref=bbcgoodfood-338809&amp;awinmid=400&amp;p=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.thewhiskyexchange.com%2Fp%2F29851%2Fmartini-riserva-speciale-ambrato-vermouth-di-torino" target="_blank" rel="sponsored">The Whisky Exchange (£19.95)</a></p><h3 id="seedlip-non-alcoholic-spirit-26911542">Seedlip non-alcoholic spirit</h3>
