the first bottle of gin I paid for and a staple in my cabinet at this point. fairly cheap and very tasty. a lot of gin just smells like something I'd take when I had the flu so I can't comment much on aroma. Juniper, pepper and a big smack of fresh citrus hit the palate and the coriander comes through as a nice little balancing act. The best cocktails to leave my kitchen are with this, it's dry but citrus forward and has a tad touch of sweetness that allows it to meld with whatever you want it to. Wouldn't sip straight often but keep a bottle around for everything else.
