So this chocolate, chilli and sea salt flavoured spirit, is tasty and interesting - there's dark chocolate as the base note, a tangible heat from the chili, and a subtle salty afternote. Overall a great quality gin, I would definitely try other flavours in this range. Good design and colours work well with the purple and rose gold, adding to the premium feel of the product.

It's really refreshing with ice. I must admit that I didn't really get the lime flavour. This is a really nice quality gin. you could do that, but I don't know how many you'd fancy.

But If you like a g&t then this also works really well. I typically prefer a standard gin rather than flavoured ones, some of which I have found taste a little artificial. It is also not overly sweet so that you start thinking you're drinking a liqueur rather than gin.

Good quality flavoured Gin well worth a try. This is a beautiful looking bottle and the gin itself is very drinkable. No need for tonic, the flavours are so good without the tonic. I personally like it neat over plenty of ice.

It is really good neat or works very well with the standard tonic water with the yellow label for a tasty G&T. But it doesn't really do what a gin is generally supposed to do: The taste profile is too complex for it to be the base of a cocktail, and I couldn't really imagine what I might use as a mixer for it. On the other hand, I do know that the trend is now for gin enthusiasts to have ever more esoteric items in their collections, and this certainly fits the fashion for left-field flavours.

The passionfruit really comes through with an aftertaste of mango. It is definitely one I would be very happy to try again, and stood out above the other flavours in this range which I wasn't so bothered about trying. So is it meant to be drank neat?

The definition of gin is a grain spirit mainly flavoured with juniper and other botanicals, and as variations of the ol' weeping juice get ever wackier, it's difficult to know if that's strictly the case any more. Cola perhaps? It’s very smooth and although it’s sweet, it’s not sickly and the blend of fruit flavours is delicious. At 40% alcohol it's at about the expected level.
