Gin is a popular type of spirit that is made a base of neutral spirits and adding juniper berries together with other botanical flavours. It is clear and has a distinctive, refreshing flavour that is often described as 'herbaceous'. Gin is typically served as a Gin and Tonic and is a key ingredient in many classic mixed drinks such as the Martini.
Some gins are more juniper-forward, while others have a more balanced blend of botanical flavours.
