Gin for a G&T?
Nearly out of Gordon's and am increasingly seeing trendy small batch gins. Anything worth trying?

I'm told lidls gin is perfectly acceptable or is that not what you mean:oThe mind is like a parachute. It doesn’t work unless it’s open.:o

I can't stand Gordon's myself. We're a Tanqueray house here
but as above don't mind Lidl's "London Gin" at all - use it with their rip off Pimms to give it a bit more oomph.

I am on Bombay Sapphire at the moment but also have a bottle of Hendricks to get through - both are lovely
x I find Aldi's tonic is lovely - tried it for the first time the other day and was the nicest I had but it has aspartame in it which I prefer to avoid

Might have to try their London Gin . . . .Aug Comp Wins - :j

Starting to OS again and get life into some kind of order! :T0 -
My personal favourite is Bombay Sapphire
I can't get on with Hendricks though as much as I want to. However, some of the other gins I like are - Plymouth, Bulldog, Langleys No 8, Tanquery and Oliver Cromwell (which is Aldi's own).

Adnams gin is lovely but rather more pricey than the supermarket stuff. We usually buy Aldi's Oliver Cromwell gin.0
