LLFW 314 - Gins from Around the World

Taking its name from the Dutch word for juniper (genever), gin was first referenced as early as the 13th century, and its popularity still shows no signs of slowing. Juniper must be the prevailing flavor/aroma for a spirit to qualify as a gin, but the craftsmanship of individual distillers makes each gin a flavorful and unique adventure for the palate. From "old world" styles to contemporary interpretations by local makers, get to know the quintessential spirit of summer.
