The Botanist Gin 750ml

I was pleasantly surprised by how smooth it is neat—the balance of floral and earthy botanicals really shines through without any harsh bite. Makes a fantastic martini.

The herbaceous notes come through beautifully without being overpowering—it's exactly what I wanted from a Scottish gin. I've been using it in simple gin and tonics, and each sip has a nice complexity.

The bottle feels substantial in hand, and the 750ml size is perfect for stocking the bar cart for guests. The staff-pick tag led me to try it, and the Scottish character really comes through—smooth, with a quiet herbal depth that works neat or with tonic.
