Beefeater - best gin for the price and a textbook London dry Tanqueray - I personally think it's overrated, but it's not badly priced Bombay Sapphire - my personal favorite, but not cheap - for special occasions only. Never had the others.

As I said below to someone else, Hendricks is fine, just costly so I don't use it much (although I own it). Fairly amazed at how many people care about my opinion of Hendrick's, must have a big brand following. Never heard of Watershed though.

no, we definitely cannot buy alcohol on Amazon. Actually, I used to have an Amazon checkout option for my online store (awesomedrinks.com) but because I sold bitters and they had "alcohol" in them (even though they are carried on amazon just as much as vanilla extract) I was unable to sell them and they took any money I had coming to me in sales and held it from me because I "violated" their terms of service. Even though bitters are non-potable and legal to sell anywhere as a non-alcohol product. The ingredient list had "alcohol" and thus amazon blocked any further use of their checkout service from my store.

Sure, they heard you...but then they all shake their head as you walk away saying "who the fuck was that guy and why does he feel so inclined to think we care?" lol
