>>19715274
Gordon's you fucking Tanganyikan sheister

>>19716098

>Too poor and stupid to know what "mass market" means

Lol, wrong thread Jose.

>>19715501
This is much better than Bombay Safire in my opinion

no rum? you fucking peasants

>>19716424
I guess Havana Club is allright. There's better options but not exactly mass market.

>>19716122
try $70

>>19716440
shouldn't be

>>19716440
It's the equivalent of 17 dollars in my shithole country, what the fuck are you smoking

>>19716440
You're getting scammed

>>19715274
Don't disagree though Popov is the mass-market spirit for alcoholics

wtf I just paid about 21€ for Tanqueray TEN a few days ago when it was on sale on amazon and germany isn't exactly third world. TEN is so good, really worth paying a little extra. the original pales in comparison.
is TEN mass market? I got it at ALDI for the same price a few months ago

Mellow Corn best corn

that stuff is great, I used to buy it before I stopped buying any UK products.

>>19717427
did the UK not support trans rights hard enough

>>19715274
Tanqueray is too citrus for me. I'm more of a Beefeater type of guy.

>>19716440
What third world country do you live in? Tanquary is like 23$ here

all this shit is 12 dollars

>>19717443
Yes, that's exactly it. How did you know?

>>19715274
Beefeater

>>19715274
Sobieski vodka is the best value for money you can buy.

>>19715274
easy

>>19715274
>>19717143
>>19717779
notice how the best budget options are all at least 45%. here's another one that stands out

>>19717779
What's up Ethan?

>>19717779
dad?

>>19715274
What's the best tonic? Everyone seems to buy schweppes and canada dry (including me). They seem to have corned tonic and ginger ale. What's the step up?

>>19718669
Fever tree. Actually decent mixers overall.

>>19716082

>>19716344
This is all you really need. Maybe mixed w ginger ale. So good

>>19715274
I prefer Hendricks, Bombay Sapphire, Aviation and Ungava to driving the Tanq for heavier drinks, but it does make good jinyntaanix.

me likey

When you buy gin you may as well go all out, its not like whiskies where its easy for some bottles to cost hundreds of dollars. Pretty much every gin you'll find is around the 20-30 dollars even the high end stuff.

>>19715274

this is the father of all gins right here.

>>19719996
nah it's not half as good as this>>19717143

>>19715274
broker's is better and cheaper

>>19715274
not sure if this can be bought anywhere outside my country
its very high quality given that the price is $7-9, not as good as tanqueray but better than bombay

>>19717143
this is so delicious

>>19719996
its good but too mild and floral for me. i like my gin zesty

Opinion on this? I grabbed this one on sale few days back for 20€. I haven't had the chance to try it yet.

>>19720421
hands down my favorite gin

>>19717427
why did you stop buying UK products mate?

>>19720421
it's really good. this LIDL "sakura" gin is basically the same thing but significantly better. it's not always available though and I'm not sure if it's being sold outside of germany at all

>>19720454
Really? I actually live near the Schwarzwald. I am gonna try this if I see it next time.

>>19720454
yea I'm not memeing. I like roku gin but it feels a bit soulless compared to this. most of the time LIDL only has the regular schwarzwald gin which is surprisingly good as well, especially for the price but not as interesting as the "Kirchblüten" edition. I'm guessing it only gets delivered to them once a year (starting in two days) and whenever it's sold out it's gone for the rest of the year

>>19720511
for>>19720472

>>19720421
I liked it, don't use it for cocktails tho, it's too delicate and just gets lost too easily

>>19720454
>Sakura
Did you know that means cherry blossom in Japanese?

>>19715274
Not sure if it is mass market, but try Plymouth

>>19720593
>cherry blossom
Did you know that means Kirchblüten in German?

>>19720611
Kirsch*

>>19720600
their navy strength gin is amazing too, not mindblowing with tonic but in cocktails or even neat it is great, really robust

>>19720623
I like it with tonic

>>19720454
Is the liquid inside these the same?
This is lidl's own brand japanese gin in the UK

>>19715274
Worst gin, Hendricks is better. Tanquerays other styles of gin are where it's at though.

>>19718765
This, I recommend it to everyone. Try their other styles of tonic water, especially the aromatic

>>19720632
I don't think so otherwise it would be 43% as well and not 40,3%. schwarzwald gin isn't a a LIDL store brand but from what I remember LIDL bought the exclusive rights to sell it.
I would still give it a try

>>19718120
The Ralphamale is sober now, get your facts straight bozo.

>>19715274

So much potency, efficiency, and functionality.

>>19716440
Australia right? There are a bunch of taxes on it. Alcohol tax is worse on spirits than wine and beer/other low alcohol content drinks. Even baileys is expensive, I think $30-$40 iirc.

>>19715274
first alcohol i puked up, even just thinking about the smell makes me feel sick

>>19720768
did you drink it neat by any chance?

>>19717779
maker's was my go-to bourbon until i tried larceny
similar price point but i like it just a tiny bit better

>>19718669
fever tree if you want your tonic to be complex but still sweet
q if you want something dryer

local cheapshit is like $30
but tank and bombgay are fucknig $70 for no reason, then the retards wonder why it never sells

>>19721718
Fucking lol, here in my neck of the US those gins are about $30 to $40. I laugh at you, poorfag. Enjoy getting price-gouged!

>>19720892
i think it was with soda water

>>19719996
I like cucumber in gin just fine, but the past few times I've had Hendricks it's tasted a little soapy.

>>19717557
What's the silver one?

>>19715274
Tanqueray and antica formula makes the best negroni
