The gin lovers thread...

Yeah Bulldog was average at best.
Loving the Adnams Copper House. Will be buying that again.

Anyone tried this before? Embarrassingly I was sold by the label, and it being a small batch from close to home.

Bought blind, never tasted yet so will update later tonight.

It's awesome: might sound but it does have a hint of horseradish - goes really well with orange

Apparently so, plus a sprig of flat-leaf coriander so I read.

I have neither garnish so will wait until I go shopping (again) tomorrow

Funny when I looked at the label I thought 'heat' (more chilli tbh)

100% agree this is a step above anything I've tried recently, without the orange garnish. Just finished a nice curry, so full and happy so tried a double measure with regular Fevertree and a few large cubes of ice.

It's a solid 9/10 from me

A bit flash for me. Bloom n Fever-Tree.

I tried it with coriander but couldn't get on with it.  Love the herb, but completely overpowers any G&T I've ever tried.

Anyone experiment with adding their own flavours to gin at all.

Been out this weekend collecting berries and fruits and am now wondering which gin to use as a base.

I make sloe every year. If I say so myself it's very good, and easy if you can stand the wait.

I always use Gordon's. A decent gin but not an expensive one.
