JAMES VIP

Many people are now members of my gin club, which is a good thing. But a lucky few will be invited to become members of the VIP club. Less like a golf club, more like having an American Express Black or a British Airways Club Gold card only without the hilarious APR or the godawful website.

So James - what do I get as a VIP?

Exclusive extra video content - (generally too dull or rude for mainstream consumption).

Early access to new and exclusive products, merch and special offers.

A chance to try out and help us name new products or come up with new ideas when we’ve run out.

Invitations to events we haven’t thought of yet.

A warm feeling of superiority.

Where do I sign up? How do I become a VIP? Rush me my badge.

It’s not that simple. First you must be a member of the Gin Club. Then there are a number of ways to get invited:

By buying enough gin over a period of time for us to be suitably impressed. (We won’t tell you how much that takes - we’ll just email you an invite when we are.)

By subscribing to or following us on social media and providing sufficiently interesting and amusing comments thereupon.

By creating impressive ‘UGC’ in whatever form, bar interpretive dance.

By telling us why you should be invited using the form below. This is unlikely to work, but you’re welcome to try. (It’s probably more interesting than what you’re supposed to be doing in any case).
