Know someone who loves a bit of luxury? Buy them a bottle of Cruxland Gin (£30) a South African export that contains Kalahari truffles. Yep, we had to look them up too, and they are indeed desert versions of the prized funghi you know and can't afford. But don't worry, this gin doesn't end up tasting like pasta. The truffle is subtle, combined with rooibos, aniseed, and a number of other botanicals to create an earthy, spicy flavour. It's must try for all gin enthusiasts and is particularly good at this time of year.
