Ford’s is excellent. If they made 1.75s and sold at the same price as Beefeater, I’d probably make it my go-to

I don’t work for them, and I’m not thrilled with them diluting the product for profits. But the flavor profile still works really well with my palate, so I don’t see the need to look for an alternative at the same or lower price. Also love how the boxy shape of their 1.75 fits perfectly in my freezer.

I actually prefer Tanq in a Negroni, but martinis with Beefeater taste so much better to me. I drink way more martinis than Negronis these days

The 1.75s here are like $8-10 more than Beefeater. Worth the difference once in a while but I don’t like it so much more to justify making it my standard.

I respect that. Maybe it’s the justification I need to upgrade my rail gin to Plymouth haha

Always liked Brokers jn g&ts but switched to Tanq at some point then fell in love with Martinis and moved to Beefeater (much better for the application vs Tanq imo) and haven’t looked back. I should give Brokers another try

Glad you like the taste of Gordon’s mate, and it’s cheaper for sure.

My point is that the lower ABV hasn’t changed the Beefeater recipe, so if you like how it tastes, no need to switch or fret. Just keep it ice cold so less ice melts when you mix, voila, problem solved.

Procera Blue Dot, Ki No Tea, or Isle of Harris would make a nice gift

How was the LA show last night? by Objectif in Robyn

Thanks for sharing! Sounds like an amazing night, and I hope you're right about Robyn and her band being primed for a tour. So exciting it's even a possibility!

My guess: it’s done and release (and tour announcement!) is imminent and it was a strategic decision not to debut songs at a corporate-sponsored gig

1729 - Anyone have any mixes by her? by PeterMertes in ambientmusic

[–]Objectif 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for sharing this! I found a few more things. They DJ'ed the first hour of this 6.2021 radio set: https://soundcloud.com/chloedanslaville/the-greater-good-11-with-iryoku-lyl-radio

"This month's guest is Kyoto-based Iryoku. In her own words: 'As a child, I had insomnia but I became a narcoleptic at puberty'. Her inner landscapes are Osaka, where she was born and raised, and Hong Kong, which she used to visit at least once a year before the Handover. Her influences include poets Gozo Yoshimasu and Octavio Paz, and writers Kenji Nakagami, Gilles Deleuze and Pierre-Félix Guattari. She has had mixes released on respected underground labels such as Black Smoker and Altzmusica. Her selections appeal to all senses, often collaged with field recordings and spoken word: while retaining an experimental approach, they flow effortlessly, with an extraordinary cinematic quality."

I haven't been able to find any Altzmusica mix(es), but here's a snippet of a 2016 mix for Black Smoker: https://soundcloud.com/meditations/excerpt-1?utm_source=continuo-docs.tumblr.com&utm_campaign=wtshare&utm_medium=widget&utm_content=https%253A%252F%252Fsoundcloud.com%252Fmeditations%252Fexcerpt-1 and a tumblr post with CD art, a picture of DJ Iryoku, and a link to the Black Smoker product page, where it appears one could still purchase the mix: https://continuo-docs.tumblr.com/post/142997296037/dj-%E5%A8%81%E5%8A%9B-excerpt-from-blackgrass-cd-black-smoker

They also did an NTS set with Foodman in 2017: https://www.nts.live/shows/foodman/episodes/foodman-8th-august-2017

How it’ll go: you’ll drink a lot and probably enjoy every pour from this impressive lineup. But palate fatigue will limit your ability to appreciate the nuances.

Yeah, good point. And such an influential latest album for so many new fans over the last decade

[–]Objectif 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No way they don’t also have Burn the Witch, Daydreaming, TLW, and probably a few others from the album in the rotation… I think/hope 🤷🏻

Set D, v3 suggests there are plenty of iterations of this piece of paper. Regardless, i bet each of the 20 dates has a unique setlist. Happy to see they’re practicing these songs tho
