Given the proliferation of different flavored gins[1] I think it's possible no one actually likes the taste of gin. There are hundreds of flavors on Amazon.co.uk[2].

[2] Amazon.com doesn't sell beer or spirits. Weird.

It isn't weird if you know how strange the alcohol laws can be across North America, including Canada. Shipping alcohol from one state (or province, in my case) to another isn't always possible.

Some classic Beefeater is great. I like gin quite a bit, perhaps more than rum
