The best DIY gin kit to give as a gift!

Do you like good gin? Good! We do too! Now, how about making your own gin at home with this beautiful and complete DIY gin giftset from a Canadian company? It’s a big YES! Ginius bears its name well.

It’s also a beautiful giftset to give to someone who loves this drink or a classy DIYer. 

The gin kit is easy to use and you only need neutral alcohol (or vodka, like this one for example) to make a recipe similar to Bombay Gin! The set allows you to create one bottle of 750 ml or 2 bottles of 375ml!

If you ever want to add some complexity to your homemade gin, you can macerate an American oak spiral for 2 weeks. This spiral adds flavor, aroma, colour and complexity to your spirit. It’s not included in the gin kit, but you can purchase it separately here. This is a nice way to use the kit on the 2nd time, after practicing once.

It’s a nice gift for a birthday, retirement, Father’s Day or for Christmas!

This Solar Watch is designed by the canadian company Solios Watches. This solar watch only need 2 hours of sun to make the watch last 6 month. Indeed, let’s say that you just don’t have to worry about it. Also, the design is very sharp and ageless, making it the perfect gift for the man in your life, whatever the occasion.

Having a solar powered watch means being able to recharge a watch infinitely with the sun, not to mention being a renewable energy source. In fact, with just 2 hours of sunlight, this solar watch stores enough energy for the next 6 months. Unlike traditional watches, the battery lasts a lifetime.

A traditional watch needs a new battery every 2 years or so. That’s about 20 to 25 fewer lifetime batteries for a single watch. The Solar Classique model, with its black mesh strap, is versatile and can be worn on any occasion. You can also choose the size of the case (36 mm or 40 mm). It’s a unisex, timeless, pro-environment solar watch that makes a great gift!

Finally, for every watch sold, 1 acre of rainforest is saved thanks to their partnership with The Rainforest Trust. We’re very proud to have a Canadian company like this. To be discovered, shared and encouraged!
