Gin

Gin is one of the world’s most classic spirits and is seeing a resurgence on many bar menus. It comes in four varieties: London-dry, Old Tom, Dutch, and Plymouth. Every gin contains the essence or flavoring of juniper berries, and generally, coriander and cassis bark. (Some gins utilize much more juniper than others.)

A New Favorite:
Martin Miller’s Gin is a terrific, London-dry gin with hints of violet and cinnamon that give it an unforgettable taste.

A Classic:
No. TEN by Tanqueray is another choice that is extremely easy to find. It has a heavy citrus component that many people find appealing when coupled with juniper.
