Isle of Harris gin is a cracker. Fantastic presentation. Quite like Cooper Kings herb gin too.

I've posted before that I once did a taste test, Gordon's and aldi standard gin. Same measure, same ice, same tonic, side by side. Very little difference, doubt I could have said which was which in a blind test.

I'd probably be the same with aldi London gin but I was meaning with the other ones at a similar price like Harrison or needle.

Dorothy Parker in NY is very nice. It's a gin, not some lass called Dorothy btw

I didn’t know she had a gin namad after her but her quips were tremendous. She was a great wit similar to but better than Mae West.

We've got some Whitley Neill Rhubarb and Ginger which is class

Ginger totally over powers it imo. Love ginger usually.

Got my wife some gin for the Isle of Man when we were over there earlier in the year, she liked it. Im no gin fan so it means nothing to me, but it was unusual (I think)

Each to their own but monkey 47 is vile, it tastes like lynx.

I tried one of their special editions a couple of years ago and was underwhelmed, but there were a few. I think it was an old Tom style and I found it bland so didnt try any others. I keep an eye out for the premium branded stuff in supermarkets when reduced to clear, other than that I generally stock up on duty free when abroad, but always on the look out for recommendations.
