    I have always been a beer man. Because of the covid lockdown I did not want to keep going to the supermarket to get beer so took an interest in spirits. I had whiskey which I have had before, but then found gin. In a way I wish I had never found it because I love it, the amazing spice smell and all that goes with it. My first purchase was Bombay Sapphire , second bottle was tanquery. With proper tonic water ( schreppes, or M & S) and a slice of lemon it is devine :-)

    There is just something about Gin, i worked all over restaurants from the kitchen to the bar, lets not forget all those drunk late nights, now days the only alcohol i can stand is Gin or Beer. The GT or Gimlet is my favorit drinks.

    Jenever, the Dutch and Flemish original gin, is way better as drink on it’s own, especially oude jenever
