mattyg 1,862 Posted October 14, 2017 Report Share Posted October 14, 2017 The gin just gets in the way of the chilli in my opinion. Gin should only be consumed once chilli cant! Cider......now thats different gravy! Matt 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cider......now thats different gravy! Matt check out perry's cider mills,sheppy's cider and lyme bay winery for some good somerset ciders.i know lyme bay is in devon but only just. perry's has gone a little bit arty now but used to have about 12/15 wooden barrels of all different ciders that you could try before you buy.now only 3/4,the rest in bottles.

Waz 4,261 Posted October 15, 2017 Report Share Posted October 15, 2017 Best gin I ever tasted came from Carrefour in Calais, it was called Old Lady's... https://www.bestofwhisky.com/uk/old-lady-gin.html I used to make my sloe gin with this, still get it in carrefour near me I think. Last bottle of sloe gin in the cupboard, made it over 10 or 12 year ago, last sloe gin session ended badly.. not had any since. Do like a g&t though. More often have just the t though for the quinin.

dytkos 17,784 Posted October 15, 2017 Report Share Posted October 15, 2017 Gin is the new "now" thing, or latest fad lol, every pub round here has a selection like some pubs sell malts etc. Nice 35cl double with a 200 tonc, lime and ice on a hot summers day is good though.

dave88 1,565 Posted October 15, 2017 Report Share Posted October 15, 2017 (edited) Daveee88, what's your whisky of choice? Pretty new to the whiskey scene so wouldn't say i have a go to whiskey yet. Only been a whiskey drinker for a couple of years...at the moment im working my way through a bottle of Glenmorangie that i got for my birthday. Never had the £££ to buy any of the higher end bottles. Any recommendations? Edited October 15, 2017 by daveee88 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sussex 5,777 Posted October 15, 2017 Report Share Posted October 15, 2017 Didn't realise how this gin thing had taken off till we had a bbq the other month and the girls from my wife's work place turned up ...by the time they had finished there was four empty and one almost empty gin bottles all different makes none of which I'd ever seen before , no wonder they were all bladdered ...me I just stick with a nice cold beer ..
