I'm not a big fan of gin, but I really enjoyed this cocktail. The crème de violette really mellows out the gin and makes it very smooth.

I found the Aviation to be a bit too strong for my liking. I think I'll try it again with less gin next time.

This cocktail is a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try it again with less crème de violette next time.

The Aviation is a great cocktail for gin lovers. The floral notes from the crème de violette really complement the botanicals in the gin.
