Picture a gin and tonic that tastes like ripe strawberries got invited to the party but kept their cool. Gibson's Pink is fruity and soft without ever tipping into sweet-shop territory, because there's zero added sugar in here. Crack it open on a warm Nairobi evening, drop in a couple of fresh strawberries, and you've got the easiest crowd-pleaser in the building. It's juniper at heart, just wearing a pink jacket.
First whiff is fresh strawberry with a little floral lift off rose petals, then the citrus and the proper piney juniper come through underneath so you know it's still a real gin. On the tongue it's smooth and berry-forward, a soft fruity sweetness that never turns sticky, with a faint peppery warmth from the spice. It finishes clean and light, more 'one more sip' than 'too much'. Fruity, not a fruit bomb.
The details
Pairs well with
Where it's from
Gibson's is an English gin name with proper London Dry roots, now made by the French house La Martiniquaise. This pink version landed in 2019 as their fruity spin on the classic, built by infusing natural strawberry and rose petal over the usual botanical lineup of juniper, coriander, citrus peel and warming spice. Smart bit: they pulled off the fruit flavour without dumping in sugar, so it drinks like a gin and not a cordial.
