I'm up for it if the temperature remains low 30s....low enough to get out and drink enough of the new flavours as possible.


Loving ginger gin.atm.

Call me a traditionalist (lol) but I'd rather just buy regular gin and mix it myself, and probably save money in the process

How old are you? If you don't mind me asking?

In my experience there are so many gins out there at the moment what with all these gin bar areas in normal pubs..and stuff like that..

It's all priced much the same for a single gin..so let the gin have the flavour infused in it already rather than buying a can of tescos ginger beer.

Same! I like the taste when I first sip, but after a couple seconds the bitterness of the gin comes through and the actual ‘alcohol’ flavour and I just hate it

For some reason everyone my age loves it but I’m just not a fan

Bought a bottle of the parma violet stuff and it's interesting. I like it.

Some quite nice flavours. Some rubbish.

That one and gingerbread are the ones I'd say I really like.

Not usually into flavoured stuff like flavoured ciders either as it's just like drinking pop.

I love the glasses they come in, nothing better than a balancing fishbowl on your knuckles at a 45 degree angle in the barable heat.

I only like the regular gin, with slimline tonic and a slice of cucumber....I want to like the infused ones but they all taste chemically to me
