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

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

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...
