In the Welsh Wind gin for World Gin Day

Celebrating World Gin Day with a giveaway

Article: Celebrating World Gin Day with a giveaway

Celebrating World Gin Day with a giveaway

World Gin Day is celebrated every year – rightly so. Gin has come so far, and so have we at the distillery. The last 3 or so years have been a whirlwind – and even this week we’ve been overwhelmed to win Best Gin Label in the World Gin Awards 2021, and a gold award.

With that in mind, to celebrate all things gin, we are offering a giveaway on our social media.

We’re offering a prize of a bottle of our award-winning Welsh gin – In the Welsh Wind Signature Style, 2 gin tasting vouchers (which can also be exchanged for goods should you be unable to come to the distillery), and one of our new In the Welsh Wind aprons which are only available to buy from the distillery itself.

Simply comment under our original giveaway post, which will be published on World Gin Day at 11.00 a.m. on both Facebook or Instagram with who you would bring to a gin tasting at the distillery, and then share our giveaway post to your stories, tagging @IntheWelshWind. You can enter on Facebook or Instagram. If you do both, we’ll count both entries.

While it’s not a condition of entry, you can bag a 3rd chance to win by signing up to our mailing list before midnight on 12th June 2021. You can sign up to the mailing list here. We’ll be making other offers available exclusively through the mailing list as we go forward so it’s worth making sure you get the latest news from us direct into your inbox.

Our aprons are from Cotswold Hipster – they have customised heavy duty canvas aprons with some carefully crafted leather detailing, featuring the updated In the Welsh Wind branding – more about that too as we approach World Gin Day on 12th June.

Our Gin Tasting gift vouchers to the value of £25 are your entry to a world of gin here at the distillery in a gin tasting experience. After your welcome gin and tonic, you will be introduced to 3 different gins by your host. You’ll have the opportunity to learn more about how gin is made and discover some of the secrets of gin tasting.

Finally, our Signature Style – does it need any introduction? Launched in July 2020, our award-winning gin is a smooth contemporary gin full of the flavours of Wales. Enjoy neat with ice, or with a splash of unflavoured tonic – it’s the perfect drink for the summer.
