Budget retailer Aldi is introducing adults in the UK to the first-ever supermarket Gin Club, and the chance to try award-winning gin for free. Aldi is kicking off its one-of-a-kind gin club by recruiting a panel of 30 gin enthusiasts on social media. Selected Gin Club members will get three bottles of Aldi’s latest summer gin launches over eight weeks, plus everything they need to make perfectly refreshing cocktails.
In return, selected Gin Club members will review each gin they receive, create their cocktail and share their opinions and experience on TikTok or Instagram with the #AldiGinClub tag. Shared reviews will provide insights to guide Aldi’s alcohol buyers ahead of key decision-making for 2025.
