Description

In recent years, gin has shed its old-fashioned image and been reborn as a hot and hip spirit. Now is the time to set out what makes gin special, what its flavours are and how to get the most out of what you buy. Discover how gin is made, what a botanical is and how they affect gin's flavour, and - perhaps most important of all - if there is life beyond the ubiquitous G & T!
