My preference, however is gin and I'm a Bombay guy. If it's good enough for the Queen of England, then darn it, it's good enough for me. Tasty botanicals. Don't, however, care for Bombay Sapphire--don't need the extra proof and it burns.

As long as I'm on my soap box, I like martinis. Asking for a vodka martini or a "hold the vermouth" martini are both oxymorons--just ask for gin or vodka on the rocks.
Gin Guy here..............Not a Sapphire fan, the fruity tastes turn me off. Bombay Dry is much preferred. Try Booth's sometime, I was surprised. There is a Booth's "Sapphire type", not impressed. I don't want my glass to even see the vermouth bottle.
