We've also tasted these three recently and reviews are in progress. of the three, Brandon's was my favorite, although it's different than many gins. Watch the GinGents page that I linked above for reviews of lots of different ones. We have one guy who travels a lot and collects up hard-to-find gins for us to sample.
Just call me Harold

Martini, with Bombay, on my deck.
Sometimes life isn’t bad.

Thanked: 4200At the local liquor store getting a fresh bottle of Lillet Blanc and spotted this.
Happy to support local distillery’s and first batch yet.

This stuff is the bomb! And aesthetically pleasing.
Our bottle is almost gone. I've generally been pretty "meh" on the Vancouver Island gins, but this one. It's good.
I'm also lucky to be about 20 minutes away from Shelter Point distillery. They're doing some great whiskys there and have recently added a gin still. I've sampled and liked, but it definitely demands more investigation."But you're not as confused as him are you. I mean, it's not your job to be as confused as Nigel. "

Thanked: 4200Mines empty, will be refilling before the holiday.
Best citrus martini base I’ve found so far. The addition of colour adds a neat spin On cocktails.
For a tradition olive martini, or with tonic, I’ll usually reach for original Bombay every time.
