Bravo, Badger ... Bravo!!!
It could be said all alcoholic beverages can be lumped into three groups: Amber spirits (whisky, Scotch, Bourbon, dark rum, etc.), clear spirits (gin, vodka, Ouzo, light rum, etc.) or brandy (liqueurs, cordials, Calvado, Amaretto, etc.)
Different gins shine in different ways: Bombay Sapphire (and London Dry Gins) are excellent for martinis. I like Gin & Tonic so Tanqueray Rangpur reigns supreme for me. For straight gin few can beat Hendrick's.
