Uncle Val's Botanical Gin Review
Uncle Val’s seeks to highlight fresh garden botanicals, including cucumber, sage, and lavender, along with lemon and juniper berries. The combination translates to bright, herbaceous aromas, and a palate with a snappy citrus zing. Forget Martinis and G&T’s, this gin shines best in a Gimlet, Tom Collins, or Gin Fizz.
