I review gin for a living and here are my 5 Amazon Prime Day gin deals

There is nothing better than a gin and tonic on a summer's day, which is why I always stock up on gin when it comes to Amazon Prime Day.

I have been lucky enough to review gin for a number of years now, adding many an update to ShortList's best gin guide. My years of reviewing have coincided with a time when the spirit has gone through a popularity boom.

As well as the popularity of gin going up, so has the selection. The proliferation of small-batch gin producers means that there is more choice than ever before - which also makes it harder to know which are the best gin picks.

I have gone through the thousands of Amazon Prime Day gin deals and I have selected 5 which I think are not only bargains but also show off the wide range gin has to offer.

Whichever gin brand you choose, please enjoy responsibly...


1. A celebrity-endorsed gin that's actually decent...
