For gin and tonics - Junipero because of its assertive juniper flavor.
For drinking either on the rocks or straight up - Hendricks or Tanqueray 10. I really don't get the cucumber in Hendricks, which is what they are known for. I get the taste and nose of rose petals. Tanqueray 10 is very citrusy to me.

Still, making your own tonic has the most cachet. Michael Cecconi, 36, of New York's Savoy and Back Forty, boils cinchona bark powder in water and then adds citrus, sweetness and fizz.


Not only does back forty have a highly rated burger, but they make their own tonic ? Yup, i'm going ASAP.

I really like Old Raj, Hendricks (my local supermarket recently had it for $16 on closeout), Plymouth and Tanq 10, depending on what I'm mixing. Recently I've been making Martinezs a lot, using Hayman's Old Tom gin, although I've just bot a btl of Ransom Old Tom that I'm going to try soon.
