The gin isn't for myself, but a gift for a friend. However, I very much like the fact that you can filter the type of flavours you'd like in a gin - cardamom, pepper, etc. For my friend, it was angelica root. I'd bought her an award-winning gin in France and it very definitely had the angelica flavour about it. She loved it, so I searched for something similar and found it in a gin from the Isle of Wight - which also, incidentally, comes in a very attractive bottle. I am sure that when we present it to her for her birthday, she will really enjoy it (and will probably even offer a taste!) The service provided was very quick and I received it within 2 days of ordering. The packaging was good and very protective. I shall definitely be ordering again ... perhaps even for myself, next time.
