What is Gin?

A distilled alcoholic beverage that is primarily flavored with juniper berries, which give it a distinctive taste. While juniper is the star ingredient, gin also includes a variety of botanicals, such as coriander, angelica root, citrus peels, and spices. The specific blend of these botanicals can vary widely between different brands, contributing to each gin's unique flavor profile. The production of gin involves distilling grain alcohol with the chosen botanicals, and it can be made through various methods, including pot still and column still distillation.

Gin is a versatile spirit often used in cocktails, such as gin and tonic, martini, and negroni. It can be enjoyed neat or on the rocks, but is most commonly mixed with tonic water or other ingredients to create refreshing drinks. With its rich history, particularly in the UK, gin has become a favorite among spirit enthusiasts and cocktail lovers alike.
