“An engaging and uber-knowledgeable guide to gin from spirits guru Ian Buxton” (Alice Lascelles, author of Ten Cocktails). From Adnams to Zuidam, Beefeater to Bombay, and London to Plymouth (and beyond), this new book from a bestselling drinks writer is the authoritative guide to the world of gin and the first book to explore the explosion of innovative gin brands and the artisanal distillers that are reinventing this most English of drinks. With serious gin bars stocking well over three hundred brands and adding still more, how do you choose? Is Edinburgh Gin a style or just a brand name? Can a rose-flower and cucumber infusion properly be called gin? Can gin be aged in wood or does that just make it a strange-tasting young whiskey? And what tonic to choose and why? In his inimitable style, Ian Buxton will lead readers through the great gin trap with his latest no-nonsense guide to 101 gins.
