Good Quality Gin

Never really had Gin before outside of a few sips. I've been told that i'd probably like it, seeing as i love hoppy/floral beers. What is a good quality, floral gin? May try to pick some up this weekend.

Hendrick's was my favorite when I was a gin man.

Hendricks is a lot of people's go-to, and it is pretty good. My favorite gin, though, is The Botanist.
It isn't as strong or rich as Hendricks. And it doesn't have the bite that you find with some of the big brands. The flavor is subtle, so if you want to taste it on its own, you don't want to get too crazy with mixers. That said, it mixes just fine purely because it isn't rich.

Hendrick's is a nice balanced Gin with some different flavors that appeals to a lot of people.
Tanqueray 10 is a good step up for people that want more flavor but don't really like the Juniper taste.
Junipero is my go to when I want a lot of juniper and spice.

Hendricks is the best I've had. Although I havent tried too many different brands.
Bombay Sapphire is a decent budget brand.

Smooth Ambler’s Greenbrier Gin is sippable and great in herbal drinks, but doesn't have the strong juniper classic taste.
New Deal 33 Portland Dry Gin is really good and much mnore traditional in style/flavor.

Barr Hill is my current favorite

Plymouth is great for gin and tonics. Not all bars carry it. Hendricks would be next option.

Here is one that got me into drinking gin and it is pretty floral:

Try new Amsterdam. Very good for the price.
I drink a lot of Hendricks too.

Hendricks is very floral and a good entry level gin. I like it in a gin and tonic.
Tnagueray and Bristow are my go to for a martini. Plymouth in other applications (Gimlets, Aviations, etc...)
And then Pimms, which is a gin variant, another nice way to dip toe into Gin world.

I was pleasantly shocked the first time I had this. I usually just drink Beefeater

Can't beat it for a $13.99 750

Kirkland's gin at Costco is pretty good. Very good for the price.

Hendrick's is my regular. I don't like Tanqueray at all. Tired of Bombay. I'm going to try some of the others mentioned.

I usually drink Bombay Sapphire East. Might have to try Hendrick's.
