This gin was released by the award-winning Notting Hill bar, Portobello Star, home of the Ginsitute. This is a place where one can learn an awful lot about gin, so you would expect Portobello Road No. 171 to be rather good, and indeed it is. It's an old-style London Dry Gin, containing traditional botanicals and spices, that harks back to the gins of yesteryear.
Nose: Hot white pepper and heavy berries with plenty of juniper.
Palate: Well-integrated spice, again with a healthy dose of juniper. Soft lemon grass flavours with a hint of red berries.
Finish: Dry, fresh and cleansing citrus.
Overall: An excellent, no-nonsense gin that deserves to be a back bar staple.

Love having this gin in the house - makes the perfect gin and tonic!

One of my go-to London Dry gins. Does what is says on the tin. Lovely with tonic and pretty much any citrus. No, it’s not especially exciting, but it’s outstanding for the price.

Versatile Gin - try it over ice with Mediterranean Tonic and a slice of fresh orange - love it 😊

Very easy on the palate. Taste of botanicals. Not too strong or bitter a taste.

Another average Gin with a postcode to sell it.Absolutely ordinary gin with another trendy label. The taste of this gin is almost exactly the same as some supermarket own brand gins. I like gin and can find nothing out of the ordinary with the taste. Based on its taste alone its just your basic gin, a good mixer masks its actually average taste.

Had a double with soda on the rocks and a couple slices of lime at The Humble Grape in Bride's Passage. Very nice.

Great on its own or made a lovely Gin and Tonic. I used a twist of grapefruit as described on the website. Very good.

Quite disappointing... tried directly after an Adnams Copper House and it just fell flat on its face!

I don't like gin, but I love this with pink grapefruit

I was not too impressed. They dub it an "old school gin" which makes sense because "old school gins" tasted like rubbish.

fine for a pub G&T

Neither here nor there! Bought a bottle in Tesco and tried it with FeverTree tonic Spanish style. Didn't do a lot for me nor begged for a repeat.

A good quality premium gin and a reasonable price but I agree that it brings nothing specially distinctive to the party. Packaging is nice though.

Quite simply a delicious gin

There's nothing wrong with this gin. However, it's a bit neutral - especially for this price. Perhaps a good one for those just getting started. Lovely packaging.

This works brilliantly in g&ts and martinis and is very reasonably priced. It was created by Jake Burger, founder of some of the best bars in Leeds, and now resident gin expert at London's Ginstitute.

not bad for yet another Thames Distillers gin
