Default A £10 gin from ALDI is declared one of the best in the world by expert judges



This gin by Aldi costs just £9.97 and is the cheapest British gin to win a gold medal at the IWSC



A spokesperson at the International Spirits Challenge said: 'The display of awards achieved by Aldi this year at the International Spirits Challenge was fantastic. They consistently showcased high quality products in the blind tastings, which demonstrates that you don't have to compromise on price to enjoy great tasting drinks.'

I used to like a drop of mothers ruin, in my younger partying days. But these days I'm more a whiskey, rum or brandy drinker.
