Bombay Sapphire is really fucking great in gimlets and martinis. It has a great balance between floral, citrus and pepper.
Personally I don't like gin much and I hate shit like the Last Word and it's current cult, but I do like Negronis and I respect that gin exists.
Uncle Val's is the shit in a Clover Club, too.
AS THE RESIDENT MARTINI EXPURT...
I find Bombay 2 be 2 forward in the botanicals. Junipero out of San Francisco has the perfect complexity and balance without too much of the seasonings.

You're not a fucking martini expert you shit bag. If you are, good on you... but you aren't.
Let's do the three question (generally non-googleable) czechlist:
1. How do you store your Vermouth? 2. What drink is a Martini descendent from? 3. What kind of orange bitters do you like?

I AM THE TOTAL COCKTAIL EXPERT!!! ROAR!!!
1) I store my Dolin brand dry vermouth in the fridge and try to use it up in about 2 weeks. If this is improper, fuck off. 2) I don't know w/o the Googles, but once I was sitting in a hotel bar in the early 90's (still in HS) on Lake Como and I order a martini and it was vermouth on the rocks? What were those waps thinking? 3) The cheap ones from Trinidad, you hipster fag. Have a native Trinidadian gift you 2 ginormous bottles of Angostura and then popoff.

1. Vermouth should be gassed with Private Preserve (argon, I believe). Otherwise, it's wine, you know. So, however long you savages would drink wine for that's been refrigerated. Refrigerating vermouth is for retards. Dolin is the shit, though! I love it. 2. Martinez! 3. Gaz Regan's is probably the best, but I like the Ango ones too. But, in a martini - gotta be Gaz's.
Manhattans and Martinis are the same drink, essentially, both descendent from the Martinez, just in different directions.
Manhattan is 2:1 Rye/Sweet Vermouth, barspoon of curaçao if you're not a savage, then ango bitters. Martini is 2:1 Gin/Dry Vermouth, barspoon of Maraschino if you're feeling nostalgic, but it makes it weird... then orange bitters.

The Hendricks in Europe is a touch smoother.

Have you read the Tug since the herpes won?
That's what I thought.
