Martin Miller's London Dry Gin

First to recommend

Description

You'll only find this gin at high-end places like the Edison in downtown L.A. where it's served in vintage cocktails. Don't be afraid, this gin is very drinkable and tasty. Try it in a Ramos Gin Fizz or Corpse Reviver No. 2.

Plymouth English Gin

First to recommend

Description

With vintage cocktails coming back, so has gin. This gin is actually listed as the brand of choice in many of those vintage cocktail books. 94 PTS WINE ENTHUSIAST, GOLD MEDAL 2007 SAN FRANCISCO SPIRITS COMPETITION. The body is medium, and initially fairly fruity, the intensely dry juniper character soon comes into play.

Noticed that lots of bars are creating caliente cocktails. If not with the pepper vodka then with chili powder and chili peppers.

I would totally drink this to save New Orleans. I'd drink it with soda. And I'd feel good about myself.

Powers Irish Whisky

First to recommend

Description

This is the original whiskey used in the original Irish coffee recipe and the same one Seven Grand uses in its own coffee cocktail. Less expensive than Jameson, complex but remains gentle, not smoky and peaty like Scotch. The Bottom Line... This smooth whiskey is both spicy and sweet and it does not overwhelm your palate or your nose like some scotch whisky. If you like whiskey, you’ll love Powers.
