They finally started carrying this stunning gin at my local store and I am soo very glad they did. I have heard nothing but great things about this but I never had a chance to try it. Then the other day the clouds broke and bright rays of sunlight shown down and there it was. Fords Gin is a wonderful mix of many if not all of the flavors I like in gin. You have Juniper (of course) as well as Orris, Coriander seed, and 3 different citrus flavors. I have sipped several gins neat and Drumshanbo is still the best neat but this is a very close second. It makes a wonderful Martini and G&T but the Vesper Martini is where it shines. You really can't go wrong with this gin. Now I will say that it did not make my top three gins for my bar rotation, but I did expand my rotation to 4 to make room for it. Also, the price is better than Drumshanbo which is about $37 in my area Fords are $30 for a liter so yeah it is a keeper. Enjoy!

Hey Fox. It's a shame that good thing can be in short supply.
I was very impressed by this as well. For like $22 for 750ml it is a very balanced and interesting gin. This company has really impressed me so far. I was thrown off at first by both this and their tequila (Cabeza), but they've since become some of my favorites in the budget category. Tragically, they can be very hard to come by :(
