Tanqueray versus Bombay Sapphire

http://www.andaluzdistribuidora.com.br/images/C%C3%B3pia%20de%20Bombay%20Saphire.jpgI am a gin man.

More specifically I love Bombay Sapphire Gin.

Gin and Tonic with a slice of fresh lime is a very difficult drink to beat.

Well, I have been up all weekend launching a new blog. A friend and I decided it would be fun and the topic is something we’re both quite interested in. It isn’t really a money making venture - we’re just trying to get together a resource that is really comprehensive and that nobody elese has done yet - at least nobody we could find.

It’s been fun, but I have been blogging like a madman all weekend trying to get the content up - as much as possible in the first few days.

So we are pretty happy so far. Day one and we have over 120 unique visitors with an average of 6 page views per person. 1.7 visits per person and 30% of them are hanging around longer than 30 minutes. Lots of room for improvement but for a first day we are very happy and we haven’t even started emailing people to ask for links and plugs yet!

So I decided to celebrate and have a few G&Ts so went down to the local bottle shop.

I couldn’t find my beloved Bombay Sapphire! Gasp!

They had sold out!

Shock.

Horror.

“What else can I drink?” I asked the attendant?

Tanqueray,” he replied.

It’s a little more expensive, but it’s still pretty popular.

So I take a bottle and make up a G&T and damn!

I am impressed. Very smooth, very tasty.

In fact I am a convert. No more Bombay Saphire for me.

So here I sit, blogging and sipping on a Tanqueray and Tonic thinking that there must be worse things in life to be doing.

I love this game. :)
