Firstly apologies for the probable apostrophe crime in the title of this topic.
Does anybody have a view on what this bottler was like? I know it is hard to say exactly, but what is the general view? I have had a look at the tasting notes on the forum and the struggles of where the apostrophe goes in 'one quiz at a time'.

Re: Grants of St. James
Hi Owen. Good to see you're still alive. You never write, you never call!
The last-but-one G70 I opened was a GoSJ I think and it was lovely. I always thought they were amongst the more reputable bottlers.
Others will know far more.
Have you forgotten that it's your question..?

"St. James's" is the answer.
They were a good bottler.

I've had great success with them. For me, at least, they're one of the better English bottlers, right up there with Berry Bros and Army & Navy.
