Not this gin drinker. I'm one of the estimated 10 to 30% of the population that can't stand coriander (cilantro/Mexican parsley), and try avoid the ones that overuse it to compensate for the lack of aromatic blending skills.

Bombay's fine, Tanq, Gordons, Boodles, etc. Beefeater has a complicated blend of coriander. I know it's Beefeater from the first awful taste, then it's okay, and then awful on the finish.

Seagram's sucks throughout, and is barely half degree better than any generic gin, meaning that it's way overpriced.

(Did you know that JF'n Kerry was once engaged to a gin heiress, Gilbey's maybe, but she was only worth about $60M at the time, and it wasn't enough for the penniless Kerry?)
