The origins of Gin are a bit blurry, as is the case with most alcoholic beverages, but most scholars agree that it is of Dutch origin. The liquor derived from grain and flavored with juniper berries was so enjoyed by the British troops during the Dutch war of independence that they made the drink their own. Along with juniper berries, many assorted botanicals lend a hand in creating layers of taste that evolve with each sip. Orange peel, lemon zest, coriander, and clove are just a few of characters you’ll find in the finer gins.
