Adore Hendricks Gin but too dear

Coolaboy

Hi folks. Love the taste of Hendricks but its 40 euros a bottle. Any suggestions of similar but third of the price? Thank you. Jim

There's gins out there of a similar quality, imo, but considerably cheaper than Hendricks but H has a particular taste profile due to the rose and cucumber additions.
Plymouth gin is often on offer, worth a punt.
Likewise tankeray 10, when on offer is good value. Most of the Irish craft gins are in the Hendricks ballpark, pricewise but compete well, mostly, imo.
There's also a gin that it wouldn't really be my place to recommend, that's at the cheaper end of the market

Would that be Boyle's in Aldi? Not much of a gin drinker but have heard it's good for the price

Boyle’s is wonderful - €25

+1 Boyle's. Very similar to Hendricks.
