Gin

Gin is a distilled alcoholic spirit primarily flavored with juniper berries, which give it its signature piney, aromatic taste. The base of gin is typically made from grain, such as barley or wheat, and is distilled with a variety of botanicals like coriander, angelica root, citrus peel, and sometimes spices or herbs. The most common style, London Dry Gin, is known for its crisp, dry profile, though there are many variations like Old Tom Gin (sweeter) and Plymouth Gin (full-bodied). Gin is widely used in cocktails, with the classic Gin and Tonic being a popular favorite.
