I remember the old days when a martini was made with gin, a hint of vermouth and an olive (stirred, not shaken). Now, it seems, they are all made with flavored vodkas.

Sorry. Shaken, not stirred. No true martini afficionado would have a stirred martini.

Tanqueray (or maybe Hendrick’s) are more to my liking. ‘An olive salad with my favorite dressing’- not sure where this came from, but it fits-!

Having read the article, I now must go get some Plymouth.
I’ve had and liked Genever.
Bombay Sapphire is OK, but I like Tanqueray and “regular” Bombay better.
Gin on the rocks, no vermouth.

I like Tanqueray, too, and that was always my father’s preference. I think it makes the best Gimlets. But several years ago someone gave me a bottle of the Bombay Sapphire and I just stuck with it.

I saw this thread and decided I had to partake...so I made a Bombay Sapphire that pretty much looks identical to this:
And I'm a bourbon drinker.

Just sat down with a Gin and Tonic and here was this to read. Thanks.

How about vermouth? The liquor stores around have a couple varieties of Martini & Rossi but that’s about it. Is the Martini & Rossi Extra Dry an adequate choice for martinis or is that falling short of the mark?
To: La Lydia
Hendricks!
If I could afford a bottle I could give you the right spelling.
But this month it's Balvenie on the shelf...or at least it was.

Equal parts Tangueray and Pellegrino, garnished with a slice of lime - my favorite evening concoction.
