Aldi's budget gins have won gold awards, but how do they really compare to more premium bottles?
With temperatures expected to hit the late 20s this weekend, people are heading to beer gardens, or stocking up on alcoholic drinks from supermarkets. Aldi boasts a wide selection of drinks perfect for the sunny weather, but gin seems to be a firm favourite.
I’m relatively late to the gin game - growing up, it wasn’t very trendy and as a teenager - I’d be more at home with a Disaronno or Kopparberg in hand. However, as I get older and the thought of those aforementioned drinks slightly fill me with fear, my go-to order at the bar is now, always, a gin and lemonade. Yes, with lemonade.
Aldi's Haysmith's London Dry Gin has everything you’d expect from a classic dry gin. If you have a flavoured mixer it lets that do the talking without compromising on the definitive gin taste. This drop would be the perfect addition to a cocktail - think Negroni, Gin Spritz or a Gin Sling. At £14.99, it’s well worth popping in your trolley next time you’re in the store.
Lastly, I tried the slightly more expensive Aber Falls Welsh Dry Gin. This is a Welsh twist on the London Dry variety, made with water from the mountains surrounding the distillery at Aber Falls. Another award-winner, I found this one to be fresh and citrusy, with a subtly spicy hint.
