London Dry Gin of some sort for mixed drinks. Plymouth is fantastic in a Monkey Gland (especially the Benedictine variation). I agree Tanquerey makes a great GNT. My favorite gin is Anchor's Junipero; but, I just keep it in the freezer and usually drink it straight, though it does make a fine martini. Lately, I've been interested in traditional Genever gins and want to try Boomsa. Erik
