RAISE A GLASS

Developed as a tribute to the botanists who sailed the world to bring back exotic plants to the royal Botanic gardens at Kew, the Kew organic gin: Explorers’ strength, £49 for 70cl, will make the perfect Christmas tipple. With notes of juniper, grapefruit, lemon and bergamot, and a hint of cardamom spice, it’s delicious. Visit or call Kew shop, 020 8332 3123, shop.kew.org.
