    Ahh, my bad guess.
    The bottle says London dry gin, so took a leap.
    Although if history be believed some might say England was the land of the Vikings, albeit it briefly,,, as was Canada too,,
    Hehe.
    Had some tasty Iceland gin while there, can’t recall the name though..

    I am a gin fanatic. My favorite is Dingle's, which I cant get in the US. My everyday is Boodles. Love a gin before (or after) dinner.

    This stuff is the bomb! And aesthetically pleasing.
    Our bottle is almost gone. I've generally been pretty "meh" on the Vancouver Island gins, but this one. It's good.

    I'm also lucky to be about 20 minutes away from Shelter Point distillery. They're doing some great whiskys there and have recently added a gin still. I've sampled and liked, but it definitely demands more investigation.

    Mines empty, will be refilling before the holiday.
    Best citrus martini base I’ve found so far. The addition of colour adds a neat spin On cocktails.
    For a tradition olive martini, or with tonic, I’ll usually reach for original Bombay every time.

    My English is elementary so I apologize in advance if on some occasion my tone should be inappropriate.
