January 25th marks Burns Night and November 30th marks St Andrew's Day, both days to celebrate all things Scotland. For the Craft Gin Club team, that means celebrating Scottish whisky and Scottish gins. 

We have a fantastic selection of Scottish whiskies in our Whisky Special Selection pack, after all, and more than a few fabulous Scottish gins on the Craft Gin Club online shop.

And we love nothing more than mixing the two is fantastic cocktails like the two below...

That's right, in honour of Scotland's official and unofficial national days, we’ve brought together these two magnificent spirits and chosen two of the best whisky and gin cocktail recipes to make at home.

Take note, these libations pack a mighty hefty punch so if you want to stay awake for your celebrations, it might be best to sip at a more leisurely pace than usual!

From all of us here at Craft Gin Club, we raise a glass and wish everyone in Scotland a happy Burns Night and a marvellous St Andrew’s Day - slàinte mhath!
