Ingredients of gin tell the story
Gin has a rich history and endless flavor variations. A gin tasting from Tasting Collection is ideal for tasting various styles, but also for learning more about gin.
Throughout the centuries, the production of gin has been elevated to a true art form. It often begins with a neutral alcohol base. This is the blank canvas on which the master distiller can get to work. Juniper berries generally form the core, but it is the unique combination of other herbs and botanicals that gives each gin its own character.
The origin of gin lies in the 17th century when the Dutch drink jenever crossed over to England and evolved into gin there. During the so-called ‘Gin Craze’ in the first half of the 18th century, gin became wildly popular, especially in London. Since then, gin has not left the world stage.
Today, gin is produced all over the world, both by large distilleries and small craft producers. There is experimentation with unusual spices or unconventional production methods. The world of gin has never been so diverse.
Gin Tasting Collections take you into this world, with carefully selected gins that together provide a complete picture of the versatility of this drink. A gin tasting set is an experience, an opportunity to discover flavors and taste stories.
