- Beefeater vs. Bombay Sapphire vs. Tanqueray:
It's a London Dry Gin showdown. Can 3 gins - that taste so different from each other - all be good in the Army and Navy cocktail?

Army and Navy
2 oz Gin
.75 oz Oregeat
.75 oz Fresh Lemon Juice
2 Dashes Bitters - Jak na to + styl
My first gin drinking was Gilbey's lemon gin and Fresca, in the 1970s. Shortly thereafter, I was introduced to Beefeater, and I never looked back. I remember my mother drinking Gordon's.
Beefeater is a workhorse for me at my bar. Haven't had Gordon's in a long time. Maybe we should do a video on it??
Thanks for the comparison.. I havnt had normal Tanq in a long while but I use the other two and Tanq 10 quite often. I recently found a Leopold's Navy Strength which is very nice.
Riley loves gin, so we will look out for that one.
I vote Bombay Sapphire!
Solid pick.
I have a friend who loves Beefeater so much he got a tattoo of all the botanicals that are in Beefeater.
HAHA, that is awesome.
I think Bombay Sapphire tends to go better with lemon and Tanqueray, Gordon’s, and Beefeater tend to go better with lime. Don’t know if there’s any scientific evidence behind that theory, but it’s been my experience.
I can totally see that.
As a bartender - I concurr. Tastes better.
Sapphire and I we have a great and harmonious relationship. Lol, love that stuff!
It really is pretty tasty. Hope you are doing well
First time drinking gin was Bombay straight out the bottle in college. That was a good night. Gin became my favorite spirit after.
NICE!!!!
Is there more than one Little Rituals, or did you get that in Phoenix?
We got it in Phoenix!
We were there for a very short period. You are in Phoenix right?
Tucson, but Phoenix is only about an hour and a half away and I have been wanting to go there for a long time!
@@yourdrinkingbuddy It is really really good.
Great video guys!!! Gin is my least favorite spirit, but 40% of my fav cocktails have gin in them. Bombay Sapphire has been my go to for a long time, but I'm going to try beefeaters next time. CHEERS!!!
Ots pretty good and nice on the wallet.
I think the reason gin is your least favorite spirit is since you drink Bombay, definitely go for the Beefeater but if you want something a bit more upmarket i'd recommend Aviation gin
Beefeater is the only gin I drink at this point. I also have a weak spot of Gordon’s when the gin is not the feature.
We always have the big bottle around. Not sure if I have tried Gordons yet.
Why r u not drinking tanqueray?
Best cheaper bottle of Gin on the market..
Beefeater with q tonic, a lemon/lime wedge, and mint is perfect
Always a good choice.
Out of these 1 Beefeater 2 Tanqueray 3 Bombay
I can totally see that for a lot of people.
I sound like a hipster but I only buy local gins now
We don't have a lot of options for local gin here.
Im a big gin drinker and have been for decades. My opinion: all three are good and really amongst the few gins worth a damn. Beefeater is best for a little kick in a g&t while the other two are too flat for it, but I prefer sapphire for an extra dry martini.
Totally understand your tastes
Beefeater wins out these. Although, Tanqueray 10 is my go to gin.
What are you thoughts on Hendrick's Gin?
It's one of our favorites!
Oh we both really like Hendricks. We are going to be doing a Hendricks review in a couple weeks. What do you think?
Have you guys tried Beefeater 24?
I have, its good, but not a huge improvement over the regular. For cocktails anyhow. I don't really sip gin much any more.
Not yet. I haven't seen it around but look forward to trying it.
What do i mix withPink 47 london dry gin??
We have not had that gin yet. I would start with a a Gimlet and go from there.
I wonder if you guys would like The Botanist.
That will be one we try this summer!! 😁
Peruvian Pisco
Love that stuff
The Bombay you chose is much stronger ABV. You should have mentioned that. OG Bombay is better and would have made an apples-to-apples comparison.
You are right. But those are the three we had on hand.
Bombay was the first gin I ever tried!
Were you a fan at the time? Do you still drink it today?
@AlchemixBar I wasn't a fan at the time, and no, I haven't drank it since! Lol, we were in Las Vegas, Nevada, and I had the worst hangover of my life on bombay! It goes without saying that I've learned to drink in moderation, and as the years went on, I've discovered I'm a tequila and rum kind of guy
@@lostabroad365 I have totally been there, done that.
Rum and mezcal have been making more of an appearance as my nightly sippers.
Got some videos planned on tequila and rum in the next couple months.
What tequilas and rums do you like?
@AlchemixBar I'm going to oaxaca city in 2 days! Which is where mezcal is originally from! I am very excited to try some artesianal mezcals that you otherwise wouldn't find unless you're in mexico! Also, let me just compliment you on your response time. A lot of these youtubers get busy and stop responding to comments. You definitely became one of my top 3 favorites bartenders on CZcams! Cheers thanks for the great content!!
@@lostabroad365 ohhh that's awesome. Lucky you.
Riley and I would like to go in the next couple years.
You should've washed your glasses or used new glasses for every serve.
We usually do rinse them between serves. Sometimes we forget 🤦
Agree 🙂
You can wash them all you want, but it won’t make the Bombay taste any better. 🥴
YESSSSSSSSSS! First!!!
Nioce
пздц у вас джин дорогой ребята взял ноль семь за пятнадцать бачинских и в ус не дую

Can’t even pronounce words
Attempting to be connoisseurs without slurs

Tanq sucks.
I drink New Amsterdam London dry.
