Notes
- Whitley Neill's hints of fynbos. Brilliantly chewable G&Ts.
- Beefeater 24's seville oranges in a Negroni?
- No.3 in a dry martini with a lime twist
- Dr J's: offputting in a G&T, but good in a martini
- Heston: hated it initially. But good as an Earl Grey Martini.
- Sacred: excellent dry martini with lemon twist. Cardamom like No.3. Smooth.
