As part of the company’s ‘panel’ successful applicants will have to try Premium Pink and Dry Gins, all made in the UK, before anyone else.

If the gins pass the taste test they will make it into the company’s gin subscription boxes.

They are looking to hire 16 new gin tasters to start in 2021 – two of them must live in the South East and the others from South West, London, East of England, Midlands, North East, North West and Yorkshire and the Humber.
