Bombay Sapphire

I've seen this gin being sold in Italy for 12€ and that's in my opinion what it may be worth. At the maximum. I really don't like the liquorice-angelica finish in bombay, for me it makes a nasty G&T, not refreshing at all.
Every gin that concentrates more on just juniper is better that this. If you're not a big fan of juniper, then I'd suggest Malfy con limone. Or just any other "contemporary" gin

Right down there with Gordon's as one of the worst gins out there. The fact that it's a bit more expensive than the former probably leads me to put this on the bottom of the pile. There's so many better gins out there.

My go to gin for the perfect Dirty Martini. Delicious peppery and herbal notes that meld well with dry vermouth and olive juice. Add a few olives and Bam!!! Lesser gins do not off the punch needed for this drink. Those who buy this gin for the color of the bottle will be more appreciative of what's inside.

The flavour can be odd for some. It balances out perfectly with fever free lemon tonic and lots of ice to keep it cool. Fell in love with this combo summertime in the beer gardens in my local town. Perfect for every occasion, and something to look forward to after a long day at work

Beautiful aromatic glass of pleasure. Surprisingly full of flavours and notes that keep you coming back again and again. Great with a mixer to fully appreciate the flavour depth,without the burn! Delightful.

This is a staple gin for any drinks cabinet. It is not the best gin, by any stretches of the imagination. But the quality for the price is second to none. Also, a very good introductory gin for those tempted into the world of juniper.

To say a vast majority of people have been conned by this gin is an understatement. It has a harsh, poorly balanced flavour, and bitter aftertaste. It's only redemption is that if you throw enough tonics/fruits/mixers at it, you can just blow out it's basic taste and use it up quickly before making the far more important decision of where the blue bottle is going to go as a nice decoration/candle holder, whatever. Buy Tanqueray or Beefeater for God's sake!

My favorite for gin and tonics. (American recipe)

1. Most gins are one dimensional and flat, Sapphire offers more than just pine and earth, with a balanced, explosive and sophisticated palate.

2. This is an entry level gin, at about 25$US/750ml it isn't very nice neat, but that's not how most people take gin anyway. For the price, it outperforms and frankly blows away anything else in it's category. It holds it's own over ice but is exquisite as a g&t and complimented by lime in almost any concoction

3. 10/10 for quality and price, flavorful, aromatic, well refined. I'll be honest as honest gets here, I can drink this to excess and suffer little hangover or, sickness as the superior refining process eliminates impurities. That can't be said for the vast majority of labels at this level.
