It doesn't work with Bombay for me. Make's it taste metallic.

Damn just seen this after pouring the last little bit of bombay and adding a couple olives. Guess I am glad I only had bombay, dont want the metalic taste.

Have you tried Hendricks? It's made with cucumber in the infusion.

Try it. It does some crazy stuff with the botanicals. It doesn't work with any other gin I've tried.

Ok, it is now official - this is falls right behind Chivas on the rocks for me.

Tried it again last night - very clean and makes for an interesting conversation in Spanish when I try to explain "Yes, that is really what Im ordering. Yes, I know what pepino is!"

Much funnier en espanol...

If you would please refrain from knocking Propane as a thirst quencher.

Thank you
