Makers Mark all the way. I prefer to sip my Woodfords. Wild turkey 81 is decent too. As you say tho it is deffo each to their own. I love quite a bit of bitters where as some people find it too much.
I got a great starter kit for bitters. www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B006ZMHWAI/
I’d say their tonics are better than Schweppes, but there’s better things you can do to bring up your G&T.
A nice big twist of lemon peel (not a slice of lemon) twisted, rubbed round the inside of the rim and dropped in is probably the most bang for your buck in a G&T.
After that, you could look at adding flavour and depth with some bitters, which is what the flavoured fever tree tonics are emulating. Something like this Bitter Truth Selection Tin will give you a good selection (celery, orange and aromatic bitters in particular are great in a G&T).
To be honest, using either of the above you can make a top notch gin and tonic with supermarket own tonic water.
