Off Topic YOUR FAVOURITE GIN?

Discussion in 'The Premier League' started by Hoddle is a god, Aug 19, 2018.

  1. I like gin. Nothing could be more English.

    This is a great time to be a connoisseur of gin, because there are hundreds of different types.

    Gin, as a base, can be imbued with herbs and spices to create all kinds of twists.

    My particular favourite, at the moment, is Thomas Dakin gin, distilled in Manchester since 1761. My last bottle was a very fine Bombay Star.

    My tonic of the moment is ASDA's Extra Special "mint and cucumber" with no artificial sweeteners, flavourings or preservatives.

    The combination, over ice and a slice, is exquisite!

    What is your favourite gin?

    I don't get this sudden craze with Gin, just goes to show how much a trend of Pink Gin brings all the cloned pooves out the closet like lemmings, hopefully Brexit will sort this shhite out.

    'mint and cucumber' <laugh><laugh><laugh>

    I like Gin but don't think it's anything special, I certainly would spend a lot in it. Hendrix is the best one I've had.

    Can’t stand Gin.

    Don’t get how it’s gone from a dull Tory tipple to hipster bevy of choice.

    “I’ve got a lovely rhubarb and artichoke Gin darling, you must try it”

    “Go stick your head in an over, you pretentious twat”

    Shocked that HIAG has joined the trend tbh.

    Yeah Tories drink gin and Labour socialists sip champagne.

    A traditional G&T was synonymous with the middle classes, a golf club type aperitif, so nothing more than a statement of fact pit boss.

    Gin's supposed to make people delusional, morose and miserable. It's a favourite with certain expats in Spain apparently.

    G&T with cucumber is an actual drink but I didn't like it at all, I'll stick with the standard G&T with lemon.

    I like gin and grapefruit juice with a large glug of Bombay sapphire.

    Gives you an evil hangover though if overdone.

  21. I never meant for this thread to be controversial.

    I'm hoping that @Commachio will be along soon to bail me out.
