[...] legs on that thing! My pal Jay Jones knows I’m a gin snob, so he made me a Martini using The Botanist gin from Scotland, one I hadn’t tried before. Frankly, this may be Too! Much! Gin! even for me: [...]

I tried Botanist over the weekend and oh my goodness it tasted amazing. Normally I bang the drum for Bombay Sapphire, Hendricks or Tanqueray but this was fabulous!!

As a seasoned Gin drinker this is the best Gin I have ever tasted. If you use Fever Tree Tonic is it amazing
I will not buy any other Gin now.

I don’t normally drink gin, but after one tasting, even I could tell this was exceptional. It fills your mouth with flavour and aroma. Probably best over ice, perhaps with just a dash of tonic. Treat more like a malt whisky than a supermarket garden- variety gin.

This is the most amazing gin I have ever tasted, and have lived in many countries, tried different gins. Whilst not a regular gin drinker myself, I do like a G&T occasionally, this one hits all the spots and, in my mind, is completely wasted with tonic. It should be marketed as a liqueur as it has the most wonderful floral finish and is so smoooth. PLEASE keep producing it. I plan to buy some more to give as presents to people.
