1. I keep seeing this Hendrick's gin mentioned.
Is that the good stuff? I am very inexperienced in the gin world. Beefeater didn't do much for me and the only other I've had was some store brand in ginger ale. lol.

But I am moving to a bigger, nicer house in the near future and I intend to have a well and classily stocked bar.

3. It's my new favorite clear liquor. I had it for the first time at the Taj in Mumbai last year.

Try it. You'll like it.
Hendrick's Gin is a brand of gin produced by William Grant & Sons in Girvan, Scotland. In addition to the traditional juniper infusion, Hendrick's uses Bulgarian rose and cucumber to add flavor. Hendrick's gin is bottled in a dark brown apothecary-style bottle.

Been a while.
I'll have a Scotch and water, lots of ice.
Thanks.

5. T&T, please
I can smell Tanqueray when a server walks by me with one on a tray.

I love that smell.

8. It is more aromatic with a greater emphasis on the citrus content. Enjoy!
