Gin’s botanical flavors are often showcased in cocktails, most famously the gin and tonic. Nevertheless, for a full flavor experience, try the spirit neat.
Gin offers a surprisingly smooth character backed by floral, citrus, earthy, and piney notes. Sampling the liquor straight will enable really telling apart the details.
U.S. regulation allows for the spirit to be mixed or distilled through varying forms, as long as juniper berries form the prominent note. This means that gin comes in many substyles.
Even if your goal is to make gin cocktails, drinking straight will showcase the flavor, helping you build a better drink. Take note of the nose, mouthfeel, botanicals, and burn.
