The Rhubarb & Ginger Gin is priced at £14.99.The own-brand gin won the highest possible award, a Gold Outstanding, scoring the highest points within the competition. Aldi’s bottle beat Edinburgh Gin’s Rhubarb & Ginger option, which retails at around double the price of the winning bottle.
Aldi’s gin was praised by judges, scoring winning points all round. Judges said: “Magnificently well balanced with full, rich flavours of mouth-watering rhubarb, fiery ginger and chaste juniper.” The discount supermarket picked up a total of 17 awards at the contest, including a Gold medal for its Glen Marnoch Limited Edition Highland Single Malt Scotch Whisky being praised for its “lovely soft texture and solid length”.
