CATCHUP! Days 7 - 11

In no particular order because I think I've lost one day anyway!

Bertha's Revenge Milk Gin

£49.99/70cl (£71.41/L)
Was not particularly tempted by their description on the website (usual over flashy one) but actually this gin was a real surprise.
Really herbal - a massive hit of cardamon - and works well both neat and in tonic. Pricey - but one of my favourites!

Tarquin's The Seadog Navy Strength

Smelt very spirity - but also quite nice neat. In fact this is one I preferred neat to with tonic (looked almost oily in the glass).

No website this time - and price from Amazon was £40.45/70cl (£57.79/L). 

Glasgow Old Tom

Another one from home - far too spirity neat, but much nicer with tonic. Frankly, not really special enough to go out an buy though. 

£36.50/70cl (£52.14/L)

Elephant Sloe Gin Liquer

Ok - I'm not a fan of tonic in sloe gin (just putting that out there) so I only had this one neat. And it was really nice! Quite a spicy sloe gin, perfect for xmas especially if you like your Gluwein. I really liked this one.

More expensive of course as a sloe gin, but £31.95/70cl (£63.90/L) isn't too bad

Mystery gin ...

So I have no idea what the missing gin is - I can't find the bottle (despite keeping almost all the others) and I have no real recollection of missing one! Maybe it will turn up in a bag at some point (hopefully not when going through an airport).
