Bethany
Nose: Creamy, like rhubarb and custard chewy sweets. Rich vanilla crème brûlée. Sweet oranges and cherries, and a little cacao, then slightly green juniper notes.
Palate: Baking spices (and a little sponge cake), oily orange and juniper. Creamy vanilla and cacao morph into dark chocolate. More cherry notes. Nice hum of the alcohol.
Finish: Mid-length and drying with a little sweetness and citrus.
Comments: Lovely complexity. The sweet yet stout character of this would lend it well to a short, simple serve.

David
Nose: Succulent, fruity notes of mango and berries are accompanied by spicy citrus.
Palate: A thick texture with a slightly woody smokiness from the juniper is followed by honeyed notes and a gradually building oaky spice.
Finish: Earthy angelica on the finish with gentle notes of violet and a hint of pepperiness.
Comments: A wellmade gin with plenty of character. Its light sweetness suggests that a Gin OldFashioned would be a good fit.
