Best drink while listening to your rig?

Ozfly - it's just being introduced so you'll see it everywhere soon - CP Dunn I have had Citadelle Gin and your right it is interesting. If you like Gin try Plymouth Gin from ...you guessed it Plymouth, England. I toured the distillery last year. It is the 7th most important landmark in England! It's where the pilgrims had their last meal and boarded the Mayflower. That's how long they have made this gin - do a taste test against Tanquerey, Beefeater, Tanquerey 10, or Bombay Sapphire and you will not believe the difference! Just a tip from an old rummy!

Pops- I have not tried the vodka you mentioned- have you ever tried Jewel of Russia Ultra? that is the BEST vodka I have ever had the pleasure of imbibing.

I prefer plymouth gin when drinking pink gin- for martini's its a little to dry for me- I prefer Bombay saphire for martini's. Tanq. or tanq 10 for gimlets- tanq. 10 is almost to smooth for gimlets :) and the regular tanq. has a sharper taste of limes which is well suited for gimlets and gin and tonic- however, IMO, is not well suited for martini's for this reason. To much booze and just not enough time!

Its funny how there is this group of lushes here at audiogon which I am proudly part of :)

Yes Tim, life if short and cocktail hour is an important part of the day to wind down, reflect, oh yeah and on the weekends listen to loud music. It's like the statement on the sleeve of "let it bleed" "This record should be played loud."

Clipsal: great post! Wish we could get some of those Australian brews "up over," as it were! Do you listen to the Waifs at all? Friend from Melbourne sent me two CDs. Kind of like them, actually.

Pops... thanks for the Plymouth recommendation. I'll keep a look out for it. I like gin with jazz, for some reason... maybe it's just the alliteration?
