Saw this referenced for the first time today...and admit I'm very tempted, but at £90 I need to be more tempted. A quick google has thrown up a lot of (surprised) good reviews...

Has anyone here tried it?

Not this one, but their standard offering. Pleasant enough for the price they sell it at in Aldi. Jeffersons is sourced (not their distilate), seems to be good consistency though from what I hear.

Not sure about this one though, pricey and seems to be quite gimmicky.

Thanks, coincidentally yesterday Aldi opened a new shop 10 minutes walk away, so I may go and "explore".

I immediately thought "gimmick" as well when I saw mention of it in a Flaviar email, but looking at the reviews it seems to get very few negative ones (albeit mostly from the States where it's $65-90 instead of £90 like over here!).

This.

Jefferson (even with the Aldi price) isn't high on my want list. This doesn't make me want to do anything but cringe at the price.
