  • James May is back in the bunker kitchen and today he's experimenting with gin. Which of these cocktails would you try at home?

    I was fortunate to obtain a bottle by mail. The first thing I noticed was the bottle had a slightly green hue, reminiscent of the old telephone line insulators of the seventies.
    After opening the bottle, I poured a couple of ounces into an old pewter jigger we had saved from a trip to the DaVinci museum in Ambois. To my surprise the mustard lingered for ages, much like a ballpark hotdog on a warm summer day, constantly sharp on the burp.
    Fantastic, transcendant.

I'm not a gin drinker, but something made by Captian Slow and Co has to be sampled, heavily. Maybe while playing chess or my preferred game Go! Hey James if you read this do a drinking session with Hammond and yourself playing Go! I'm sure you know about it.. The oldest game played to this day.
