Uncle Val's Botanical Gin

big herbal and (slightly bitter) cucumber. this Gin has a well balanced composition. while I enjoyed it straight, I don't think a Gin & Tonic is the best fit for this gin.

It took me a long time to like this gin. It has an overpowering aroma and taste. the big component for me is the cucumber. It is overpowers everything and its not a flavour im fond of. i found with some tonic and lime juice to round it out a bit, it grew on me some. still definitely not a favourite of mine but if you are into that flavour profile it will be amazing. I recognize its quality despite it not being my style.

So many botanicals! Tried this in a Tom Collins and all I can say is damn! Where have you been my whole life? Most def one of my new favs.
