Hi Robert, Great piece about gins and I thought I'd write a quick one. First, to say how great to hear that the gin (Plymouth) that I was in charge of through it's re-birth in the US did so well in the tasting, and second to say thanks for the mention of Fever-Tree, which I started with Tim Warrillow after my Plymouth days. As you may know Fever-Tree tonic won 'Best Product' at Tales of the Cocktail last month which was thrilling — a vindication of the hard work, care, and attention we took to create it and continue with in making a tonic fit to mix with the best gins and vodkas. I thought I would just mention one thing, that all the Fever-Tree range is actually available more widely in the US than Whole Foods, with Food Emporium and Wegmans stocking the range in NY and many other upscale retailers around the country (tonic water, ginger ale, bitter lemon and club soda). All the best and thanks again for the mention.
