To be honest, I had higher expectations... you can find less expensive gins with a smoother character. It's rather ordinary.
Features juniper and floral notes, it's dry and smooth, making it suitable for a gin and tonic.
Wonderfully interesting and balanced flavor. Tastes vibrant and fresh.
From a Flaviar sample: citrus, juniper, pine. It's okay but not memorable.
Juniper, sweetness, grape, spice, citrus, and smooth.
