Discover the Best Watermelon Gins
In 2019, the first Watermelon Gins arrived on the market from Two Birds Gin and Verano Gin, and they have proven very popular indeed thanks to their potential for refreshing, summery servings (and even more so as watermelon combines beautifully with mint). 2020 saw the launch of Tourer Gin's Watermelon & Mint Gin, followed by WL Distillery's Watermelon & Liquorice Gin, but there still remains just a small but highly enjoyable collection of gins on the market featuring watermelon. Discover the best Watermelon Gins available in our guide, listed from A-Z including information, tasting notes, serving suggestions and details of where you can order a bottle for yourself.
