    So pleasant. Vanilla, spice, honey, mint and oak and a lovely oak finish...Beautiful chilled, but amazing in a proper Manhattan with Antica and Angostura or Orange Bitters (and a proper Maraschino). I’ve been a George Dickel/Woodford Rye fan but this is fantastic at the price point.

    I just don’t get it. Too much of everything, too much personality for me. I bought a bottle but that will be it....Hold the darned phone...Just made a G&T with my last 1.5oz. ... This is the best dammed G&T I’ve ever tasted. Another bottle is on the shopping list.

  • Bombay Sapphire Gin (47%)

    Earthy and spicy with a great chewy, herbaceous, savory mouthfeel and finish. We enjoy a lot of other Gins (North Shore 11,6; Plymouth, St. George, Hendricks etc. ) but there is always a bottle in the house and its generally available in most bars. It really is a spectacular shaken martini with olives gin.

    Honey, vanilla, baking spice, stone fruit, a bit of mint and smoke which surprises ... lovely finish, minimal alcohol burn ... I think this is the fourth bottle I’ve owned. It’s sometimes hard to find. One of my favorites.

    A nice spicy rye with vanilla and herbaceous notes with a sweetish finish. This is my go to for Manhattans. Never had a complaint! A great value too. I always keep a bottle around.

    I’m pretty indifferent to vodka although I like Titos in a Bloody Mary. I tasted this recently at a local market and bought a bottle. I like this straight with an ice cube. It’s got a pleasant corn/grainy flavor and smooth finish. It’s almost too nice to mix.

    Cut the Antica back to a half oz, or eliminate altogether, add the usual, especially chocolate, bitters and this makes a lovely quick Manhattan. A real Maraschino is a must of course. I’ve taken to a 1/2 oz of a barrel strength bourbon or Rye to punch up the flavor. My wife just adores this stuff.
