Have you ever seen anyone drink Bombay Sapphire? (piefed.blahaj.zone)

I often see Bombay sapphire for sale at supermarkets. I once saw an unopened bottle someone had in their house but I've never in my life seen anyone drink it.

Has anyone else?

I live fairly close to the distillery - it’s a fun trip, even if you don’t drink. Like most gins they just use grain alcohol so all the flavour comes from the choice of botanicals and they seemed to care about the quality.

I prefer Hendricks myself but Bombay do a lot of very good special editions.

I'm drinking it right now. I'm a scotch/bourbon guy but I drink it neat, so if I just want a light cocktail it's usually gin and club soda. It's hard to beat ~$25 for 1.75 liters for a pretty good but nothing special cocktail liquor.
