Cocora
Gin and tonic gift set

As part of our product test, we analysed the gin and tonic gift set from Cocora in detail. The high-quality glasses from Schott Zwiesel proved to be stable and durable, making them ideal for preparing gin and tonic. The selection of organic spices, including juniper berries, coriander seeds and hibiscus, offered a variety of flavours and fresh aromas in the test.

The accompanying cocktail book contains over 40 pages of recipes and interesting facts about gin and tonic for both beginners and experienced mixologists. The packaging of the set is tastefully designed and includes a greetings card, making it an attractive gift option for various occasions. The bar accessories made of high-quality stainless steel are dishwasher-safe and robust.

The set also emphasises sustainability by planting a tree for every set sold. The materials are 100% organic, recyclable and reusable.

Overall, the gin and tonic gift set offers a balanced mix of quality, design and functionality. It is suitable both for personal use and as a gift for special occasions.

  • Great design
  • High-quality materials
  • Sustainable
  • Very informative recipe book
  • No gin or tonic included in the set

The first impression

Packaging and contents

Here we take a closer look at packaging. Sustainability is becoming an increasingly important factor. In addition, adequate protection of the product must of course also be guaranteed. Are the contents of the packaging complete and does the manufacturer make it as easy as possible for me to use the product straight away?
