New limited edition in Boyle’s Gin Collection launched in Aldi for Christmas 2019
This Christmas, Boyle’s Gin, produced exclusively for Aldi by Waterford-based craft spirits business Blackwater Distillery is back with a new limited edition product – Boyle’s Old Tom Gin €29.99/70cl, which is on sale from today, 14 November in all 139 stores nationwide, while stocks last.
This new product is known as the “Captain Dudley Bradstreet” Edition, supplied in a beautifully foiled gift box containing 700ml of gin, and a scroll giving both a selection of cocktail recipes, and the story of Dudley Bradstreet, a Tipperary born adventurer and spy who was better known as a scoundrel, playwright and brewer.
Tom Doorley, Aldi’s drinks expert has given the new product his seal of approval, noting: “It has extra juniper character, a touch of sweetness from liquorice root and a very small amount of sugar. It’s a taste of history and, as it happens, part of the original recipe for one of the great cocktails, the Tom Collins.”
