Hendrick's Curiositorium

Introduced to this very special gin by some roadie dealers in industrial furniture, in a tent in Brimfield Massachusetts (sounds strange, but it wasn't really) Phil you can attest to this! It was probably one of the best G & T's I've ever had. And I don't think it was because we were tired and dirty after digging through acres of the most incredible selection of antiques and weird junk. This past Christmas I received a bottle as a gift. Thank you Liz! After testing several 'pinkie surprises' (G& T with bitters) and not all in the same sitting. I do conclude that it really is the most spectacular gin and I'll never drink any other kind again. I visited the Hendricks website and now I love them even more. I even love the company that did all the branding and advertising. With a name like Quaker City Mercantile whats not to love?

    What memories... that gin, along with the ramshackle barn (that was falling in); Ben and Jerry's on the floral bedspread in the Motel; lobster and hauling HEAVY crocks all over the place (and I don't mean shoes)... xxx
