STiL Gin Review
This gin was very very cheap and so I picked it up here in DFW out of curiosity. There is no website nor any information on the bottle.. the website mentions anise, citrus, and floral. You all know I can be quite critical of a lack of information on a bottle of liquor. Very sketchy..
The smell is very much like New Amsterdam Stratosphere. I ranked that gin as 2.2/5 but I should have ranked it around .8… this gin, smells only slightly better. Still synthetic and sugary syrupy smell. Some interesting spice notes but drowned in a factory smell that reminds me why people in America hate gin.
The taste is similar to the smell. Tastes very much like New Amsterdam, horrible syrup taste. But there is a fascinating spice note coming from the anise that reminds me of chocolate, but not interesting enough to save this gin.
Overall- 2.3/5, .1 points higher than New Amsterdam, should be lower but I need to be consistent and this is technically better than NA. Just buy Gordon’s at this price point…
