I have had it in a martini and it had plenty of flavor, but you're
right about gin in general and no flavor anymore. I don't call
drinks, but when I want to taste a gin flavor I do tell the cocktail
waitress that I want a London Dry - which usually confuses the heck
out of them. Most bar tenders aren't any more knowledgeable. They're
children. Nobody knows how to make a San Jose style Super Chavella
either.

I love cooking with wine.
Sometimes I even put it in the food.
