As I study more and more vintage cocktail books I notice that a lot of the recipes call for both Gordon's and Barcardi by name. Most people now would agree these should be well liquors at best. What happened? Did the world's pallets change? Did the distillers cheapen their products? Or perhaps did the competition get that much better?
