It has very very rough corners. That is where my "Prohibition Gin" comment came from. I think that any drink that you use it in has to be fairly sweet and have flavors that reach over the gin. This is definitely not a gin for "people who don't like gin." (I put that in quotes because I actually do not believe that these people exist. I think they just haven't had a properly make cocktail using gin. And they're probably from Connecticut.) The drink Sean mentions having this in at the Rehobeth Dogfish contained various fruit juices that countered the gin effectively by double-teaming (eh eh eh) it with sweet and tart. Ummmm . . . sweettarts . . . One note to follow up on the Dogfishhead Jin. It has very very rough corners. That is where my “Prohibition Gin” comment came from.
