Gin: Craft, Flavor & Inspiration
Gin is a versatile spirit known for its signature juniper flavor, giving it a distinct piney and citrusy character. It forms the base of timeless cocktails like the Martini, Negroni, and Gin and Tonic, making it a favorite in bars and homes alike.
What makes gin truly special is its blend of botanicals — from coriander and citrus peel to cardamom and cinnamon — allowing distillers to craft distinctive flavor profiles. Because gin can be produced anywhere in the world, it has sparked a modern craft renaissance full of creativity and experimentation.
