I bought a One The Rocks brand premixed bottle of Aviation hoping to see if i like it enough to buy the ingredients. But it has a terrible nai polish remover after taste. At first its very, floral and pleasant but its the cheap plastic bottle vodka, flavor that harshes my mellow.

Is this just how aviations are or this just the On The Rocks style aviation

Edit:had the bottle. Tastes like flowers smell

    Aviations taste amazing when mixed correctly. That said some recipes are insane with their proportions. I recommend making it yourself with 2oz gin, 1/2oz crème de violet and maraschino liquor. Bonus points if you can find a crème de violet that isn’t syrupy. When I was in Colorado Elevation 5003 distillery sold the best liquors and the cheap stuff like arrow didn’t cut it anymore.
