Size Name:70 cl | Style Name:Watermelon and Kiwi Gin Inspired by Mauritaus, Whitley Neill Watermelon and Kiwi gin is a stunning mix of tropical flavours from ripe and bright Watermelon and Kiwi adding refreshingly subtle hints of summer. The range of handcrafted Whitley Neill gin flavours are inspired by tastes from around the world, curated by 8th Generation distiller Johnny Neill. All eight generations of the Whitley Neill family tree shared a taste for discovery, and Johnny is no different. Taking us back to the 1980s, a teenaged, white chino and wayfarer wearing Johnny remembers a tropically fabulous trip to Mauritius. Daily breakfast would include tucking into juicy and bright watermelons and kiwis while sitting back with his family and taking in beautiful Island life. Refreshingly bright notes of fresh pressed watermelon complimented by a tart tropical fruit of green mango and sun kissed kiwi. Delicately fresh and fruity sweet summer watermelon sorbet balanced out by zesty lime and tart tropical citrus notes of freshly picked Kiwi. The perfect complement to the ultimate summer seasonal gin ritual accompanied with subtle notes of liquorice root and piney juniper. Best enjoyed by filling a highball glass with cubed ice, add 50ml Watermelon and Kiwi Gin, topped with 200m Indian Tonic Water or Lemonade, garnished with fresh mint. For an easy at-home cocktail try a Watermelon Spritz. Combine 50ml Whitley Neill Watermelon and Kiwi Gin with a dash of watermelon juice over ice in a tall glass. Top with lemonade then garnish with a grapefruit wedge and mint leaves.

You have to try this
OMG, this has become my favourite flavour of Gin yet. Originally tried at local pub and had to locate for myself. You can taste the hint of pear when you drink and as you swallow you get hints of green apple. Just what quince is. You need to try it out for yourselves.

If you haven’t tried it - Do!
I’m a big Gin fan and would say I’ve done the rounds of what is out there on the market.As a go-to easy to drink gin, I can not fault this offering from Whitley Neil.With a good tonic and big slice of orange it is very crisp and refreshing.Would highly recommend you try it.

Check the colour!
Had this a couple of times and as others have said avoid if you want a dry gin however if you want something a bit sweeter, the quince with plain tonic and a slice of lime is very refreshing.I've bought the quince a few times but my most recent order from Amazon was a very curious colour. Contacted Amazon who immediately sent a new bottle but are asking me to pay for the return up front rather than sending a prepaid label which is odd (and annoying). The picture shows a comparison of both the original and replacement side by side - as you can see there's a distinct difference in colour (barcodes are the same).

Way too sweet - not a normal gin
I was expecting a taste extravaganza from Whitley Neill LemonGrass and Ginger Gin - and what I got was sugar. I love ginger and lemongrass flavours, but this was just sickly sweet.It's a gin liqueur, not a dry gin at all. Almost binned it.If you like dry gin, avoid.

High quality gin with a delicious flavour
I’ve always loved Parma Violet sweets so I was keen to try this. It has the distinct flavour of that coupled with the smoothness of a really high quality gin. What’s not to like? And I don’t consider myself a gin drinker usually. I drink it in a tall glass topped up with lemonade and ice. Delicious and excellent value for money.

Quince Gin
Delicious!!! Hassle free procedure - ordered & delivered next day at good price too. This is an exceedingly tasty drink when coupled with aromatic tonic water (Fever Tree) or normal Schweppes and topped off with slice of pink grapefruit!!!! Lovely 🍹

Too sweet for me but the wife loves it!
Like other Whitley Neal gins, this is quite sweet, but not as sweet of some in the range.If you like parma violet sweets - this is just the same, except it's gin (well, sort of). The wife and I disagree on this one, she thinks it's great, I say it's more of a gin liqueur and not a proper gin. It's fair to say that you do lose the sweetness in a good dry tonic (Like Fevertree's light or Mediterranean variants) but yo could easily drink it neat over ice if that's your sort of thing.You're now armed with the info, so make your own choice!

Great for a summery G&T
This has a lovely, almost citrus, flavour - different to lemon and orange gins on the market - and harder to describe - other than to say it makes an excellent, summery G&T. I will definitely buy again!
