Thanks, guys! I just picked up a bottle of Plymouth, and I'm sipping on a 4:1:1 Aviation as I type this. Very tasty - much more than I had expected. Busboy, perhaps a bit of background is in order. I actually am a bartender. About a year ago I was stuck in a really lousy job and looking for something different, and I went to a bartending school as a sort of "well, why not?" option. Note that I had never really drunk alcohol at all; didn't like that ubiquitous alcohol flavor I found in all the wine, beer, and cocktails I ever tried. Anyway, I passed the bar school course, and they got me a lead on a really good bartending gig, which I have been doing ever since. (In retrospect, I didn't get much out of the school beyond that one job lead, but that alone was well worth the time and money). Anyway, I found that I really enjoyed what I was doing, especially the detailed and eclectic knowledge about all sorts of spirits. I realized I would have to start drinking to ever really move beyond beer-tap-jockey as a 'tender - and the bar I work at has a pretty limited selection of spirits (and drinking on the job is verboten anyway), so I have to build up my home bar to play with the interesting stuff. I'm quite enjoying the process of trying out all these, but there is such a huge field of liquors to discover that I decided to do it in a more-or-less organized manner, one major spirit at a time. And now I've finished off my Aviation, and the last sip was even better than the first. I suppose it should have been, since I really like Maraschino and the smell of juniper. Next up will be a Ginger Rogers (a riff on the mojito, from "The Art of the Bar", using gin and ginger-infused simple syrup) with dinner.
