Gin, from the French genievre, or Juniper, from which it derives its distinctive flavor, dates to the Middle Ages; it has evolved into one of the most widely enjoyed spirits for the connoisseur and novice alike. I will taste-test some of the more popular brands and offer a brief survey.Hendrick's: A Scottish Gin that infuses rose petals and cucumber into its flavoring as well as the traditional Juniper berries. Expensive, but many say well worth it. A very tasty and distinctive gin.
Plymouth: I've never tasted this gin before, but it is quite excellent and may well be my new favorite. Dry and unusuusal, it makes a superlative martini.
Tanqueray: A famliar favorite. Never disappoints.
Bombay: A darn fien gin. Dilicous.
Seagrams: Reelly underrated. Some
Boodles: i guahgy get gin . Its goood. Goodd.
