Gin

Have you ever had a gin and tonic before? Gin used to be considered an unrefined liquor, but it has come to be seen as a sophisticated drink over the past few years. 



Gin is a spirit that has been around for centuries. It is made from juniper berries and has a distinct, earthy flavour. Gin is often used in cocktails, and its popularity has grown in recent years. There are many different types of gin, and each has its own unique flavour. Gin can be enjoyed neat or mixed with other ingredients to create a variety of different drinks.

Gin is a clear, distilled alcoholic beverage with a strong botanical flavour. The primary taste of gin is juniper, but it can also include other botanicals like citrus, spices, and herbs. Gin is typically between 35-50% alcohol by volume (ABV), but it can range from 30-94% ABV. 

History of Gin

In gin's early days, it was a medicinal drink, thought to have healing properties. It was first distilled in the Netherlands in the 16th century, and became popular in England during the 17th century. Gin was initially used as a base for other alcoholic drinks, but it eventually became popular on its own. 

Types of Gin

There are many different types of gin, but they can broadly be classified into three categories: dry gin, sweet gin, and Old Tom gin. Dry gin is the most common type of gin, and is characterised by its clean, juniper-forward flavour. Sweet gin is less common, and is made with added sweeteners like sugar or fruit juice. Old Tom gin is a sweeter style of gin that was popular in the 18th and 19th centuries; it's making a comeback in recent years.

No matter what type of gin you prefer, there's sure to be a recipe out there that features it. From classic martinis to refreshing summer cocktails, there's a perfect drink for everyone. So grab your bottle of gin and get mixing!

Ways to enjoy Gin

There are many ways to enjoy gin. Whether you like it neat, on the rocks, or mixed in a cocktail, there's a way to drink it that suits your taste. If you're new to gin, it can be helpful to know some of the most popular ways to drink it. Here are a few of our favourites:

  • Neat: This is the simplest way to drink gin. Just pour it into a glass and enjoy.
  • On the rocks: If you like your gin with a little bit of ice, this is the way to go. Just pour gin over ice cubes in a glass and enjoy.
  • In a cocktail: Gin makes a great base for cocktails. Some of our favourites include the classic Martini, Gin and Tonic, and Negroni.

Whatever way you choose to drink it, we hope you enjoy gin as much as we do!

Pairing gin with food

Gin is a versatile spirit that can be enjoyed in a variety of ways. One of the most popular ways to enjoy gin is to pair it with food. Gin pairs well with a variety of different foods, making it a great choice for any meal or occasion.

There are a few things to keep in mind when pairing gin with food. First, gin pairs well with both salty and sweet dishes. This makes it a great choice for appetisers or main courses. Second, gin can be paired with a variety of different fruits and juices. This allows you to experiment and find the perfect combination for your taste buds.

Finally, don't be afraid to experiment! Gin is a versatile spirit that can be enjoyed in many different ways. Try pairing it with different foods and see what you like best. You might be surprised at how well gin goes with certain dishes.
