Limited reviews
Only The Gin Is In has scored this bottle, and one review isn't enough for a negative call. The Gin Is In gives it 4/5, vs. 3.8/5 for the typical gin (480 rated).
The Botanist Islay Dry Gin is produced at the Bruichladdich Distillery on the Isle of Islay, Scotland. It is distilled in a converted Lomond pot still nicknamed "Ugly Betty," combining nine classic gin botanicals with 22 wild, hand-foraged local Islay botanicals for a complex, floral, and citrus-forward character.
