Gin Snob

While I was in Denver, I attended a dinner at the Capital Grill, an upscale Morton's, Ruth's Chris-competitor. I was seated next to our host. The waiter asked for drink orders and our host asked if the bar stocked Hendrick's. What! I thought I was the only one who asked for Hendrick's in the remote chance they might have it.

When I related my thoughts to our host he responded that a lot of people are "wine snobs, but I guess I'm a gin snob." He also expressed surprise at finding someone who even knew of Hendrick's.

I remembered the conversation on my way home and detoured to snag a bottle.

I guess if it walks like a duck...

BTW, a tip of the sombrero to the folks at Hendrick's for the fine swag. Thanks.
