6 different kinds of Gin?

A colorless spirit produced by distilling grains like barley, corn, rye etc. with juniper berries and other botanicals such as: coriander, angelica, herbs and spices. The base of grain mash lends it the character of a light-bodied spirit. It gets its predominant flavor from juniper berries. But the many other botanicals that are typically added is what gives it additional flavors and aromas.

There’s various types, which may be surprising to some, but there are some notable differences in the way its made, tastes and what can be legally defined as.

What is Gin made from?

Well, you can think of it as vodka flavored with juniper berries

In Holland, distillers make a similar spirit called Genever. It’s from a mixture containing malted barley, wheat, corn, and rye. It produces a fuller bodied spirit similar to malt whisky. Highly aromatic juniper berries are necessary as flavoring agents for both gin and Genever. Other botanicals used include: anise, cinnamon, lemon peel, orange peel, coriander, cassia bark etc. Most distillers have their own unique combination of botanicals which they maintain as a trade secret.
