The Gin And Tonic Thread.

[Minstrel SE]

A craft gin is a proper gentlemans drink and Im getting into it

I love a Gin and tonic. My favourite so far is the Rhubarb and Ginger Gin but I want to work my way through the best Gins and ideal mixers. I always have a slice of lemon and lime handy. About three ice cubes and chilled tonic does the trick. I dont think the gin glass should be filled with ice. I just buy Sainsburys tonic water

I think the most popular brand names are the fast food of gins. ie..Gordons and Greenalls. I dont think 37.5 ABV is good enough and is skimping.

I am going to try Roku the Japanese Gin and then Martin Millers made with Icelandic water Im looking for a special blend of botanicals and a Gin to beat all the rest

I have a gin kit with a small infuser ball seive but I dont know what Im supposed to infuse in there.

Lets have your favourite brand and tips for the perfect Gin and Tonic.
