Bombay Sapphire gin is being recalled for having too much alcohol

by Circa News
May 4, 2017

If you live in Canada, and you're feeling your gin a little more than you should this Friday, relax. It's not you. It might be your drink.

The Canadian Food Inspection Agency said that bottles of Bombay Sapphire gin were found to contain 77 percent alcohol, nearly two times the advertised amount of 40 percent, CNN Money reported.

Bacardi, which produces Bombay Sapphire, said that approximately 6,000 bottles in Canada might be affected.

So put a little spring water in it!  Not a BFD.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

Stronger than 151...that'd be 154 proof.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

6,000 bottles doesn't sound like much, but I guess it's enough to give someone alcohol poisoning
