The Gin Guide Membership
The Gin Guide launched in 2014 to impartially enable consumers and the trade to discover new gins and new ways to enjoy gin, to support the gin industry, and to enable gin producers to get their gin in more people's glasses, sell more bottles and open more accounts. Membership of The Gin Guide enables you to promote your gins and distillery to tens of thousands of gin lovers and trade professionals, and to help achieve the sales and recognition your gin deserves. Membership is available to distilleries or brands commercially producing and bottling at least 1,00 litres of gin per year, with those gins being consistently available to consumers either directly or via retailers.
