HUFFINGTON 07.21.13 TASTE TEST Exit TAP ON EACH COMBINATION FOR THE TASTERS’ VERDICTS GORDON’S + FEVER TREE GEORGI + FEVER TREE BEEFEATER + CANADA DRY HENDRICK’S + CANADA DRY PLYMOUTH + CANADA DRY BOMBAY SAPPHIRE + FEVER TREE BROOKLYN + CANADA DRY PLYMOUTH + FEVER TREE BOMBAY SAPPHIRE + Q TANQUERAY + CANADA DRY GORDON’S + CANADA DRY NEW AMSTERDAM + FEVER TREE HENDRICK’S + Q NEW AMSTERDAM + CANADA DRY GEORGI + Q NEW AMSTERDAM + Q PRICE-QUALITY CONCLUSION There was actually a negative correlation between the price of a drink and the average rating it got from our taste testers. It could be a reflection of the general disdain for Q Tonic, which was about 70 cents more expensive, per drink, than Canada Dry. Still, that doesn’t explain the general enthusiasm for drinks on the low end. Maybe HuffPosters just have cheap taste!
