Gin

Gin is a spirit which derives its predominant flavor from juniper berries (Juniperus communis). From its earliest beginnings in the Middle Ages, gin has evolved over the course of a millennium from a humble patent medicine to an object of commerce in the spirits industry. Today, the gin category remains firmly established as one of the most popular and widely distributed range of spirits on the planet, and is represented by products of various origin, style, and flavor profile that all revolve around juniper as a common theme.
