And I fall in love in this bitter taste.
Gin is spirit made from grain and flavored with a mixture of botanicals and predominately the juniper berries. It is the juniper berries that gives gin its distinctive aroma and evergreen flavor.
First made in Holland, Gin was popularized by the English in the 1640s.
Gin was the drink of the English working class and they brought to the US. The majority of Gin sold in the US is London Dry Gin.
Ingredients:
