3Took my time with this one with soda. There were flashes of lemon character, but the juniper dominated everything. I wouldn't refuse it, but I have other favourites.

5We tried this gin during a casual tasting. The lemon character came through clearly, and dry finish kept the sip interesting. One of the more enjoyable options I've tried in this category.

2Had this gin with olives. The idea of lemon character was there, but the finish turned medicinal.
