Inspired by the African sundowner experience, Elephant Gin combines rare African botanicals with fresh apples and pure spring water to create handcrafted premium gins. This composition gives the gin a complex and strikingly mild bouquet with floral, fruity and spicy aromas.

Elephant Gin Founders, Tessa and Robin Gerlach, were inspired to create their range of premium gins following their adventures in Africa. They strongly believe that this generation has a responsibility to protect the future of African wildlife and are diligent in their approach to fundraising and working with conservationists to ensure meaningful change.

Elephant Gin's personalised gifting sets are available from www.elephant-gin.com

Elephant London Dry Gin (45%)
Elephant London Dry Gin owes its complex and remarkably mild bouquet to a composition of a total of 14 carefully selected herbs, roots and fruits, including African herbs such as buchu and baobob and fresh apples from northern Germany.

Elephant Strength Gin (57%)
The Elephant Strength Gin is an "overproof" variation of the award-winning Elephant London Dry Gin, with 57% alcohol and double the amount of ingredients but stronger and fuller-bodied than the original. A special focus on juniper, African buchu, orange peel and mountain pine give the gin a much more intense scent and taste, without neglecting the soft and balanced character of the London Dry Gin.

Elephant Orange Cocoa Gin (40%)
As an invigorating, citrus-fresh gin variation, the Elephant Orange Cocoa Gin (40%), a new addition to the portfolio, delights gin lovers with its aromatic complexity of sun-ripened Spanish organic oranges, fine organic orange peels and gently roasted cocoa beans. The recipe tastes full-bodied, textured and light, reminiscent of a hint of velvety soft orange chocolate.

Elephant Conservation Efforts
Every year more than 35,000 elephants are shamelessly killed because of uncontrolled ivory poaching; that is one every 15 minutes. Elephant Gin has made it a priority to contribute to the conservation and protection of these magnificent animals.

Elephant Gin donates 15% of its bottle profits to inspirational African elephant projects including East African anti-poaching organisation, Big Life Foundation; Elephant Gin and Space for Elephants’ own “The Wildlife Spirit” – an education centre in the South African Lebombo Mountains, focused on teaching local youth and adults about wildlife conservation and giving visitors the opportunity to learn about elephants and their importance to the ecosystem; as well as the Nairobi-based Sheldrick Wildlife Trust, known as the most successful orphan elephant rescue and rehabilitation program in the world.

Elephant Gin’s environmentally and socially conscious production methods and extraordinary quality standards have been honoured worldwide by the World Spirits Award and the Eco Excellence Award. Since 2019 Elephant Gin has been awarded the Butterfly Mark of the sustainability platform "Positive Luxury". The Butterfly Mark is awarded exclusively to luxury lifestyle brands in recognition of their commitment to creating a positive impact on our world.

Brits are swapping the 'big day' for the 'right day' as searches for intimate wedding venues soar

Couples are increasingly choosing quality time over large guest lists, with new search data revealing a growing demand for intimate weddings and stylish registry office ceremonies. According to Google search data analysed by Suit Direct, searches for "small intimate wedding venues near me" have increased by 86% year-on-year, while interest in "micro wedding packages" has risen 23% over the past three months, suggesting more couples are opting for meaningful celebrations that prioritise the experience over extravagance. For many, the legal ceremony is no longer just the paperwork before the "real" wedding. Instead, couples are dressing for the occasion, hiring photographers and celebrating afterwards with an intimate meal or party, proving you don't need a 200-person guest list to make the day feel special.

Expert at Cake Box, shares 2026 wedding trends

Weddings may be rooted in tradition, but 2026 is seeing couples put their own spin on the big day. From reimagined wedding cakes to more personal, less conventional celebrations, today's couples are increasingly choosing what feels meaningful to them rather than simply following the rules. To explore how wedding traditions are evolving, Okay Rahman, Head of Product and in-house cake expert at Cake Box, shares their insight into the biggest wedding trends of 2026 — and how couples are putting a fresh, modern twist on some of the most-loved elements of the day. He said... "We're seeing that wedding cakes are becoming much more personal in 2026. The traditional tiered cake certainly hasn't disappeared, but couples are feeling less tied to the idea that a wedding cake has to look or taste a certain way. These days, it's being treated as another part of the styling of the day, so the design reflects the couple, the venue and the overall feel of the wedding.

Are Brits risking their finances by avoiding the pre-wedding money talk?

Are Brits risking their finances by avoiding the pre-wedding money talk?

For many couples, talking about money can feel far less romantic than talking about the wedding itself. But as more Brits prepare to tie the knot — and with stronger legal rights on the horizon for unmarried couples — new research suggests we may be leaving some important financial conversations until it's too late. From avoiding money talk on first dates to steering clear of prenups, the findings reveal a nation surprisingly reluctant to discuss how to protect their finances, even when differences over money are already putting relationships under strain. Two thirds of Brits (66%) say they would not get a prenuptial agreement before marriage (48%) or have already opted against one (17%) - compared to 42% in both France and Spain. New findings from Europe's second largest neobank, bunq, reveal that Brits are markedly more resistant to prenuptial agreements than their continental neighbours – despite Britain's reputation as the less romantic nation.
