Gin is not an acquired taste. You're either born with the gin gene or you're not. Now, that being said, anyone who can't enjoy a well made martini simply isn't trying hard enough.

I grew up in a house that knew no vodka but gin very well. I would beg the gin soaked limes from my parent's g and t's and suck on that lovely summer treat with fervor. To this day I prefer gin over vodka and have recently run into many people saying ick to it; associating it with old men, degenerates, violent drunken rage and disparaging its aesthetic. Good gin is a great thing but the quality of the tonic when mixing is also important. of course great gin is great alone and cold.

Damn glad to have that gene listed in my resume!

It's a taste I acquired. I used to HATE the stuff, now I have a burning yen for GIN -- it could almost be a religion if I wasn't already a committed and devoted Absinthe fiend.

I guess my Gin Gene done woke up.

The Old Man used to say "There's 2 kinds of drinking, there's 'drinking' and then there's 'Gin Drinking'."

Both suck. Life's too short for bad booze, get some Bluecoat, some Voyager or some Hendrix (if you've go dough).

You are simply wrong. Beefeater is good gin.

How can Gordon's and Beefeater be put in the same category? One is bottomshelf, the other is upper shelf.
