El Guapo Bitters Tonic Syrup 8.5 fl oz - Crafted with Fresh Citrus and Organic Botanicals - Cocktail Mixer for Gin & Tonics - Gluten Free & Vegetarian

I really like the flavor of El Guapo Tonic Syrup. I love that I can adjust the flavor/sweetness when I add it to my Soda Stream fizzy water. Fewer plastic bottles (and shipping of all those bottles with water added to a bit of poor quality tonic syrup) from the grocery store, fewer plastic bottles to "recycle". Win. Win. Win.

I just started experimenting with syrups and I really like the flavor of El Guapo. It makes for a very original and refreshing gin. It's pricey, but a little goes a long way and it definitively beats most commercial tonic waters out there.

This wasn't the best tonic or the worst tonic, but it had a nice enjoyable flavor. My main complaint is the amount required for each serving means you're going through a bottle of this rather quickly.

I am a huge gin+tonic, and occasionally just vodka+tonic drinker. I normally use Fever Tree brand, but have been trying to find a tonic syrup brand worthwhile as we recently purchased a drinkmate carbonator and have been looking to save some money.This tonic syrup tastes more like some sort of chocolate+rootbeer syrup than it does tonic/cinchona bark, and the combination of flavors is actively disgusting to me even served without liquor within the range of ratios they recommend on the front of the bottle. The dark color I can overlook, but the taste is so far off of what anyone would expect when buying a tonic mixer than I cannot fathom who would use this instead of more readily available pre-made tonic sodas, even cheap ones. It almost tastes like someone mixed chocolate syrup with limes and ginger and decided that was a good product.An additional note, the bottle is flimsy. They dress it up with some gold wax stuff to make it look premium, but within a few days of having it, it fell off a low shelf in my fridge and the neck of the bottle cracked, spewing the stuff all over my wood floor. Anything else in my kitchen would have survived that fall, but this decided to add insult and make a gargantuan mess.

Bought to use with DIY seltzer. But it mainly tastes like citrus: almost lemonade level before the cinchona kicks in flavorwise. It's not a *bad* taste, but it's not the taste of tonic water.

I love gin and tonic and this tonic syrup was a great new twist! Very delicious and floral with sweet fruity notes, highly recommend

Tonic water was hard to find in our remote town this summer so I decided to try this. It took me a few tries to know how much to use (not much) to get the taste I wanted but I'm happy now. I use a small amount, add a bit of sugar, lime juice, ice and soda water or even plain water. It has a fuller taste than commerical tonic water - experiment a little.

If you like something a little different, this is a great "bespoke" tonic. I added Perrier mineral sparkling water to it and made some great beverages, also good to drink by itself.A bit on the pricey side but definitely the best out of the 3 boutique tonics that I got.
