Me?
We have a bunch of good local gin, if anyone wants to try Vikre, Norseman, Tattersall, L'etoile, Far North....would trade. Far North and Vikre are the best I've had fron here.
You know you love the attention
Actually you can do that. An old fashioned does not have to have whiskey although that is the alcohol of choice most of the time now. An old fashioned only refers to a style of drink in which some bitters, water and sugar are added to an alcohol. Over time whiskey and then bourbon came to be the alcohol most commonly used. When first being developed other alcohols were used such as gin. Although recent tradition dictates we now used rye or bourbon there is no reason not to use gin. It would pick up the muddled orange beautifully and has the potential to be a great drink.
A BA negroni could be pretty great, Ive got to try that. I had a negroni the other day with orange bitters and a flamed orange peel. Honestly the best negroni I have ever had. It picked up the citrus flavors beautifully and was just amazingly balanced.
I would deffinitly trade local gin for local gin/alcohols. We have thistle finch and bluecoat which both do great gins.
Shoot me a PM if you want to trade. More interested in beer though, but I might want to get some gins for my girlfriend in the future. Not a huge gin guy myself but since we produce so many good local gins I thought I'd throw out the offer. Not looking for wales by any means, just good locals and/or common semi-limited/seasonal stuff.
OH SHIT crossposting this shit
Fuck that sounds good.
Really looking forward to Gin Necromangocon at Spring Mead Fest:

Needed more ginger, or more barrel, or some Brett, or something. Idk. It was only "partially" barrel aged...feelsbadman
This was a fun play on a Negroni (moved a bunch of pieces in the recipe, but had a Negroni flavor and feel at the end of the day, and the Gin and bitter were the stars of the show)

Had Tommyrotters cask strength BA gin the other day. I know it's cask strength but it was big. Really oak forward, but botanicals come through nicely on the finish. The biggest BA gin I've tried.
