Tanqueray Gin

Tanqueray Gin

A “supermarket” gin if there ever was one, true. But it’s also true that there might not be any better example of the London Dry gin style.
Overall Rating: ★★☆

Springbank 12 Scotch Whisky

Springbank 12 Scotch Whisky

I’d argue it’s a great whisky, but Springbank 12 is a study in how great whiskies can sometimes be challenging or outright baffling if you don’t know what you’re getting into. I hope you decide to take the plunge!

Nikka Coffey Gin

Nikka Coffey Gin

It’s sophisticated, it’s doing something new, and it’s Japanese. But at easily twice the price of a “premium” gin, it doesn’t rise to the high standards it sets for itself.

Alipus San Andres Mezcal

Alipus San Andres Mezcal

As of yet my favorite mezcal, flat-out. If you've thought of anything in the spirit category as a perpetual tire fire in liquid form, this might be the bottle to make you reconsider.
