as it occasionally happens during the course of one's life, patterns of behaviour arise which necessitate the consideration of an outside perspective. and so, today, i find myself at such a crossroad, though not one nearly so dramatic as my tone may imply.

one small fact about me which you may not know: my libation of choice is gin & tonic, with a twist of lime. it is of little consequence, but i also prefer to drink it from a heavy tumbler.

as a spirit, gin is rather tasteless until distilled with various bonatical substrates; thus, the field of flavour varies widely by brand. as a consequence, some time back i embarked upon a quest to discover my favourite gin. here is where you, the reader, can assist me.

do you have experience with a particularly intoxicating gin? i am, of course, not referring to the percentage of alcohol content, but rather to the melange of flavour with which i may titillate my taste buds. i do not wish to influence contributions, and so will not mention my various attempts to date; however, one may rest assured that i have partaken of the most reasonable choices proffered by my neighborhood spirit vendor.
