George's finest (4)

I believe the answer is:

best

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'george's' is the first definition.
(George Best was a footballer)

'finest' is the second definition.
(similar in meaning)

(Other definitions for best that I've seen before include "Top; defeat" , "Optimal" , "Most excellent; outwit" , "Most excellent - late football star" , "Optimum" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
