Good Points: Strong ginger taste. Warming and satisfying.
Bad Points: None, as far as I'm concerned, since I wouldn't want to drink it on it's own.
General comments: It makes the best hot toddy I've ever had and is lovely to cook with as well. I live in the United States, but on my first visit to the UK years ago, I was introduced to this wine and bring back bottles of it every year. Take a jigger of the ginger wine, a shot of GOOD whiskey, honey, lemon and hot water and you'll never again be cold on a winter's day.

I had a bottle given to me as a Christmas present, so I don't know how much it cost or where it was bought.
I found it a bit too cloying on its own, but it's very good to drink warm on a cold evening. Diluting it 2:1 with boiling water in a standard size mug works well (stir it thoroughly though, because it doesn't mix properly otherwise).
Pouring Crabbie's Green Ginger Wine "neat" over vanilla ice cream and a few chunks of candied ginger would also be very tasty, but I'll leave trying th ...

Crabbie's Green Ginger Wine has a good strong taste and powerful aroma with a magical green look in a clear half pint mug. Other ginger wines I have tried in the past have a reddish liquid inside a green bottle. This is the first to have a green liquid inside a green bottle. It's more expensive than other ginger wines but it's a good wine to try if bored with normal grape wines.

A truly fantabulous drink which goes well with most of the normal things. For the perfect drink try a Ramshank: A Crabbies Green Ginger Wine Spritzer on the rocks with a hint of Rose's Lime Cordial. To finish off ad a roasted coffee bean for that extra panach !

Crabbie's Green Ginger Wine is truly a beautiful thing. It's very very strong and syrupy and difficult to drink straight on it's own, but has a wonderful aroma of alcoholic ginger. On a winter evening however, just mix a measure of this with a measure of whiskey, add some ice and you have the perfect cocktail! Yum yum yum!
