Whitley Neill Raspberry Gin 70cl

Raspberry-forward gin that tastes like you raided a summer punnet, then got your act together with proper juniper and citrus. It’s bold, fruity, and ridiculously easy to mix, but it still reads as gin, not raspberry syrup in disguise.

• Nose: Fresh raspberry, lemon peel, a clean hit of juniper, plus a light floral lift.
• Taste: Juicy berry up front, then dry juniper, bright citrus, and a gentle peppery spice that keeps it snappy.
• Finish: Berry fades into a crisp, zesty dryness with a lingering juniper echo.

If your usual gin drinks feel a bit one-note, this is the easy upgrade. The raspberry gives you instant flavour, the juniper keeps things grounded, and that citrusy edge means it doesn’t get cloying in a long drink. It’s a go-to for a Bramble (hello blackberry-raspberry vibes), and it’s great in a Gin & Tonic when you want something brighter and more playful than “pine and tonic water.”

Think of it as two bottles in one. It can be your crowd-pleaser for casual mixing, and it can also be your “I know what I’m doing” bottle when you start playing with cocktail builds at home. It’s especially handy for UAE weather because it brings loud flavour without needing a bunch of extra ingredients to feel exciting.

Want to know where it shines most? When you’re mixing for people who “don’t usually like gin.” The fruit pulls them in, the classic gin backbone keeps it from feeling like a sweet alcopop, and suddenly you’ve converted a few sceptics.

Fun Fact: Whitley Neill is a family spirits name with roots going back to 1762, and they’re known for building gins around real, bold fruit character rather than just tweaking the label.
