Nominated for Tales of the Cocktails Spirited Awards 2021

This is a book about how to drink gin of all kinds.

It's about classic gins and new-generation gins, about gins from all over the world. It's about gin enjoyed with tonic and Sicilian lemonade. About the perfect martini gin and the best gin for a negroni. It's about juniper-heavy and delicate aromatic gins. About gin cocktails that ooze style and personality. Above all it's about enjoying your gin in ways you never thought possible.

With more gin brands available than ever before, it is the time to set out what makes gin special, what its flavors are and how to get the most out of the brands you buy.
