Beefeater London Dry Gin (47%)

Great for a G&T.

Nose of juniper, lemon peel and oil, and some pepper. soft entry, a salted juniper berry and a lemon dusted with coriander fall quietly onto a bed of pine needles. There is a residual sweetness from just a touch of anise at the end. Beefeater is my current go to "cheap" gin because it has the perfect amount of sweetness for a gin. Plymouth is similar and technically better in my opinion, but not $10 better. If you want something to make classic gin cocktails that aren't too dry or citrus-y, then you really don't need to look any further.
