About Gin
Gin started as a medicine then descended to a cheap drink of the working class before it became what we know today. The name was derived from the French word genievre, which means juniper, which in turn got corrupted, to Geneva and then to gin. Gin is regarded as a simple spirit as it consists of a pure grade alcohol, water and flavouring. Most British gins are of the type known as London dry. They are a neutral spirit redistilled over juniper berries, and other aromatics. Gin is never left to age
