A 2 1/2Oz gin dilution of tanqueray rangpur(1 1/2oz) and tanqueray No10 (1oz).
1/2Oz of dolin dry vermouth
Dash of orange bitters regans No5 is good but i use home made now.
Dash of lime bitters.
Stirred over ice with 2 olives as garnish the acidic lime helps balance the flavour of the smoke right till the end where the salty finish really goes well with the very last few puffs IMO.
Though you might need to drink 4 or 5 to make it to ration it to the last puff.
This sounds great! I'm usually more of a straight up Bombay with olives kind of martini guy, but I like the sound of yours.
Drinking a Kraken and Coke. My favorite mixing rum.

Kentucky Bourbon Barrel Ale. Missing home a bit so this is the next best thing since I'm out of bourbon.

Yes, the Goslings Black Seal is another of my favorites. I was once in Bermuda and I drank Dark n' Stormy's by the gallon!
Having a Thomas Tew neat. It's a craft distilled rum made in Newport, RI. It's aged for a couple of years in oak, but it's a little rough around the edges.
