“Gin, the drink that once seemed terminally unfashionable, is undergoing a revival and is once again the darling of cocktail aficionados.”

Dorothy Parker:

“I love to drink martinis,

Two at the very most

After three I’m under the table

After four I’m under my host”

With the arrival in Australia of Hendrick’s a few months back it looks like there could be a gin resurgence coming, perhaps to rival vodka. A while ago my post on my top ten gins was popular so I thought it may be worth voting upon. I suspect people are much more passionate about gin rather than vodka because the taste is so complex. With vodka the choice is really about the purity you are prepared to pay for.

For the record I’m told that locally Hendrick’s is available from The Prince Winestore, The Wigs Cellar and from Dan Murphy’s and Vintage Cellars from this month.
