Old Raj Gin RED 750ml

The juniper-forward aroma hits you immediately when you pour it, but there's a surprising warmth and spiciness that lingers on the finish that I wasn't expecting from a gin. It makes a truly memorable martini that stands out from the usual London drys I've tried.

The bottle has a rich, deep red hue that makes it stand out on the shelf, and the 750ml size is perfect for stocking my home bar. It's got a smooth, balanced taste that works great in a classic martini.

The subtle heat from this gin warms perfectly without overpowering the juniper notes, making for a balanced sipper. It's a bit pricier than my usual go-to, but the smoothness in a martini justifies the cost.
