Gin
#1
I have recently discovered Gin. Not most people's favourite drink, certainly, it seems, not amongst young people.

The problem is there are so many different types of gin out there i'm unsure which is best. I'm willing to pay a little more for a good gin, but at the same time i find anything in excess of £20-25 too much.

From probing about, and asking friends and family etc i've received conflicting reports on Gordon's, Bombay Sapphire, or Tanqueray being the best moderately priced gin. (Gordons £13, Bombay £17, Tanqueray £21 approx).

So for those of you in the know, WHICH IS BEST? I simply must know. Surely one of you is, or is becoming a gin-soaked-crone like i am!

I am sure there was a song or something about a gin-soaked boy?

When I was a student I went through a peculiar period of drinking gin neat, was a b***er trying to get barmen to give it to me neat.

Anyway to answer your question. I would recommend The London Gin No. 1 although I would have to admit that it is right at the very top of your price range.

My favorite was brandy for many years. However, I am now partial to Gin. I especially enjoy Bombay Sapphire. It is expensive in the U.S. ($41.99 for 1.75 L). But can get it at Costco for $11 less.

As for Hendricks Gin Gareth recommended, I have not tried it. Am wondering if that particular Gin is available in the U.S. ?

Bombay my friend. I'm not a huge fan of gin, but if I didn't have a choice I would happily drink Bombay (that didn't really make much sense, but I hope you get where I'm coming from)
