I just invented a new drink-the DUtini!
Named in honor of the numerous drinking threads that encouraged me to try some GOOD gin-I used to hate gin because I had some really lousy stuff before, and I never wanteed to touch it again!
So, in a cocktail shaker with ice:
3 oz Citadelle Gin

1 oz wild Spirit

and a splash of sweet vermouth

Garnish with an olive.

Not bad at all! A little sweeter than I've been taking my gin, but not overpoweringly so. The Wild Spirit accelerates the kick substantially.

To the DUtini!

Maybe two. I'll just get drunk with you...vicariously.

2. Well, OK, but you're leaving me all the fun!
Now that I've tried this I think it would also be good with dry vermouth too.

From Internet wines:

Wild Spirit Liqueur

The early pioneers of America enjoyed Wild Spirit drink of the frontier. Strong spirits, fire brewed cocoa and wild herbs. Excellent straight on the rocks of as a mixer. Receipes on back of bottle. 90 proof
