Gin accessories
Cooling stones gift set
I love recommending cooling stones for gin enthusiasts who enjoy their drink perfectly chilled without any dilution. These stones maintain the ideal temperature, ensuring pure, undiluted flavor.
I know the description says they’re whiskey cooling stones, but trust me, they work just as well for gin. Keep in mind that this is a brilliant gift for purists, but for those who actually like (or need) a watered down gin, it’s not the best option.
However, they might not suit those who prefer their gin slightly watered down by melting ice. For purists, cooling stones are a brilliant choice!

I’ve found some amazing hand-painted gin glasses that are perfect for any gin enthusiast. These ones from Not on the High Street are decorated with bright, colorful flowers, covering both the bowl and the base, adding a lovely touch of detail.
