Gin

I was inspired by Randal's picture in the drunk thread to extol the wonderful virtues of gin, my favorite liquor. Although there's not much it mixes well with, I can down gin and tonics one after the other and get oh so pleasantly drunk.
But Randal, seriously, do yourself a favor and get some Bombay Sapphire. Tanqueray counts on its sweetness to get by...Sapphire's a much tastier, herbal gin.

I hate Vodka and tequila. I don't like whiskey that much. I kind of like gin and rum. I love cognac.

i can see how you might hate tequila. most people who say that do so because they've chucked their guts up along with it a few too many times.
vodka, otoh... what is there to hate? a good vodka has no taste and very little smell.
as an aside, what the hell was being talked about at the gathering? fucking vaporising liquor?! where in fuckedupsville do people do something that retarded?

so hangar one insists on flavoring their vodka?
i have the coolest book on vodka around here somewhere that details the distillation process that takes supreme pains to remove flavors (congeners).
i take great offense to those flavored-on-purpose vodkas.

I hate tequila because it tastes like something you excrete AFTER drinking, not like something you should BE drinking.

No way, what kind of tequila are you talking about?
And that zubrowka stuff is polish bison grass vodka. It's really smooth and tastes like faint herbs and almonds.

I'm a rum fan as well, although I prefer the "Special Reserve" or something to that effect.
