    Gin Lovers Unite!

    Foxdenton is good stuuf, I quite like their 48% Dry Gin. Some thoughts: http://summerfruitcup.wordpress.com/2010/09/12/cocktails-with-foxdenton/ I quite like Foxdenton Sloe Gin too as it's not too sweet and quite ginny. I did try a work-in-progress of another company's Damson Gin bottled at 40%...

    Gin Lovers Unite!

    Absolute pleasure to meet you and your friend, it was an unusual night but I enjoyed it. I got to try Tradewinds Gin (from Australia) surprisingly smooth for 50%ABV. I also had some Gin made in North Carolina but bottled under a South African label that was pretty good. One of them was a gin...

    I'm quite a fan of Old Raj too, although after a little taste test I actually prefer the Red to the stronger Blue (55%) I've also been enjoying Adler Berlin Gin

    Old Tom Gin

    I can imagine so, what I do know is that some of the best selections of Old Tom's are in German Bar's and two of the ones we tasted are made by a German company.

    Harvey 1950 - Martini Glasses

    I was watching Harvey with James Stewart and when he and Harvey go into the bar at the beginning he order two Martinis. These seem to come in very small, maybe 1oz. Does anyone know if this was the general style in the 1950s?

    Man commits to 40 days of beer for Lent

    Old Tom Gin

    I've just done an Old Tom Gin tasting at a bar in London and I wondered if any of the loungers buy and drink Old Tom Gin? If so how do they mix and what brand(S) do they buy? I'm quite a fan of Haymans.
