A bespoke bumper of bibulous bounty: Bols gin, Boru vodka, Bokker's bitters, bacon bits, broken ice.

Unfortunately, Mrs. Rughi put me on notice that I'd better quit fooling around with more cheap or pricey bottles and get Gilbeys, like she likes. It's not about about cost or variety it's about the junipers!

Plymouth Navy Strength; my favorite for a martini. The regular is fine too.

Hendricks; w/ tonic and a slice of cucumber.

I was initially not a big fan of gin, but it's starting to win me over... I really actually like a drink that some people think is the pre-cursor to the Martini which is called a Martinez...

I am not sure if it's juniper based but I dig Plymouth.

I am also not sure if Hendrick's is juniper based (my guess is no? because it seems more mellow and has that cucumber thing going on...) is another favorite also.

I think I make a decent Martini, but they for some reason always seem to knock me on my a$$!!! :slappin: I can't have many of them, so I don't really make them much... :grin:
