Half of the bars I go to don't even know how to make an Old Fashioned and just give me a Manhattan instead. Cliche is good in a cocktail. The last thing you want to do is walk into a bar and ask for some stupid shit the bartender has never heard of and doesn't know how to make.

Jack Rose. God, I love that drink.

Only if you're an idiot. That's about... 2.5 oz of asssorted spirits+an 80 proof liqueur. Which is just about as much as the following:
>2:1 Martini
>Manhattan
>Sidecar
All of which are classic cocktails. The LIIT is full of booze but it's balanced in its composition.

That said, that's still pretty much just over 2 shots of booze in a single drink that doesn't particularly taste of booze and isn't really a sipping drinking.

Outside of esoteric drinks like a Widow's Kiss, I can think of more, but they're all sort of descendents/variations on one another at some point (you can be really reductive and say that there are only 4 kinds of cocktails - base, syrup and modifier; base, citrus and syrup; base, aromatized wine/liqueur; base, carbonated water). You can say a Bee's Knees is a Gin Sour with honey syrup, whereas the Tom Collins is a carbonated Gin Sour, and the French 75 is a Tom Collins with champagne in it rather than carbonated water.

I'm not sure how available it is outside the EU, but definitely give Becherovka & Tonic a try if you like Gin & Tonic.

Becherovka & Tonic tastes like gingerbread almost, it's very nice and gentle, but just as refreshing as a Gin & Tonic.

Yeah I dunno I've been over all kinds of dry gin and I've found beefeater to be the most consistent to my liking. I just finished a bottle of finsbury but I think it just is not as nice as beefeater. Suggestions are welcome though. I've just transitioned back to alcohol from weed when I realised I can actually just make drinks without being a pussy. I haven't really had a mix for 30 years, always had it straight but now I realise G&T and jack and coke is much better than having it straight on the rocks.

No offence but I feel like Americans don't have access to good gin or tonic (assuming you live in north america).

Where I live (Scotland) Shweppes is like bottom of the barrel tier tonic and beef eater isn't that much better.

Baseline for me is fever tree tonic and tanqueray. Top tier is probably Harris Gin with a dash of plain tonic and grapefruit. Most drinkable is Brockmans Gin with fever tree tonic and blue berries (lightly squeezed).

I live in Finland. It's more of a quantity over quality country. Don't have that many tonics in the shops. Not too many gins either. I'm not the sort to pay 50 for a bottle, beefeater is the right price.

Right now I'm growing some weed on the side so when my royal hulkberry autos have grown up it's back to quality weed again.

Us Finns enjoy more about the being drunk aspect so we'll drink anything that goes down rather than ponder if the drink is any good. This is why we drink a lot and have a reputation of being drunks but we don't have a single drink that the rest of the world knows - because we don't have one. I'd say jaloviina is the only thing that could be considered a Finnish thing but even that is just second rate cut brandy.
