An acquired taste

Bombay Sapphire Gin and Tonic Double Serve, 250ml can, 10%, $29.99 for a 4-pack.

Does the gin you drink say something about you? Like or not, it probably does. Bombay is a well-known traditional brand, with a distinct look (blue bottle) and feel. It also has a different process, using vapour infusion to release the aromas of the botanicals, in its London dry gin. But hey, for some, it's just a matter of, "would I like to be seen drinking this?". Of course, once out of the bottle, 99 per cent of gins look the same in a glass full of ice. For me, a ginamateur, I find the Bombay Sapphire cocktail very dry. Added lime doesn't change that. Maximum ice doesn't change that. It's just the way it is. I'm just going to say, this is gin for an adult, and an acquired taste. And keep drinking it.
