In the Welsh Wind - with the Craft Gin Club!

This is a secret we've been keeping for the best part of a year, so we're incredibly excited to announce that Signature Style is the Craft Gin Club Gin of the Month for April 2022. Read on to find out more about our Craft Gin Club journey - and how you can win one of the Craft Gin Club April boxes - featuring a special edition of Signature Style, along with tonics, cocktail syrup, mixers and snacks all carefully chosen by the Craft Gin Club for this Spring/Easter edition box.

Craft Gin Club April 2022 Gin of the Month bottle of Craft Gin Club Edition Signature Style from In the Welsh Wind Signature Style

 

Our Craft Gin Club Journey

The Craft Gin Club is the largest UK gin subscription service, sending out over 100,000 bottles of craft gin every month to their members. Members don't just receive a full bottle of gin, but tonic and garnish to complement the gin, a cocktail syrup (and recipes), snacks, and 'Ginned' - a glossy magazine featuring the gin of the month, the distillery where it's made, cocktail recipes, and lots more.

Craft Gin Club selected the distillery to feature in one of their 'Gin of the Month' boxes back in early 2021 and we've been working on it ever since. We had to think about whether it was right for us - whether we were ready for such major exposure. You can imagine that it's one thing for us to sell our gin from our website and from the distillery door, to people who have considered their purchase; quite another for our Welsh gin to be sent out to over 100,000 self-confessed 'gin lovers'...

After discussions with the team at the distillery, we decided to go for it. Working with the Craft Gin Club has been a really positive experience. They've been helpful and encouraging as we worked our way through the distillations needed to produce the right amount of liquid; and then worked on the content for the magazine and for digital content too. There's a live unboxing when Ellen will be talking about our Signature Style dry gin on Facebook - and plenty of other activities for us to be involved in across the month.

We've already had a humbling amount of amazing feedback on the gin since the boxes went out. The Craft Gin Club's social media feeds have been alive with positivity about our Welsh gin, and we've received a number of really lovely messages directly to us. 

A Craft Gin Club Giveaway

If you're not a Craft Gin Club member and you're feeling like you're missing out on something, why not enter our giveaway competition? 

We're really excited to announce that we have 2 of the April Craft Gin Club boxes featuring the Craft Gin Club Edition of Signature Style Welsh Dry Gin to give away. The boxes also include Llanllyr tonic, cocktail syrup to mix up a Gin Daffodil cocktail, sparkling lemonade from Heartsease Farm and a selection of savoury and sweet snacks. Alongside all these goodies is the April edition of 'Ginned' which features the distillery story.

We have 2 competitions running, one on Facebook and one on Instagram from the evening of Friday 8th April to win one of the April Craft Gin Club boxes and a bottle of our Palo Cortado cask-aged gin. Ts & Cs apply (see below) and there are slight differences to enter the competition depending on whether you're entering on Instagram or Facebook - see the individual Giveaway Posts on the different platforms. The idea is to name a friend who you'd share the box with - and if you are the winner, you receive the Craft Gin Club box to share with your friend, and your friend gets a bottle of our Palo Cortado cask-aged gin to share with you!

Good Luck!
