The World Atlas of Gin

Never has there been a more striking revolution in the world of distilled spirits than the current renaissance of gin. With small craft distilleries popping up all over the world, from Texas to Tasmania, more varieties and techniques are being used than ever before, creating a tapestry of tastes from light and citrusy to big bold savoury notes. Gin's appeal is extraordinarily wide and varied.

From gin made in small batches from local botanicals to large facilities producing some of the world's most recognised gin brands, The World Atlas of Gin explores everything from the botanical to the bottle. It covers topics like how and where botanicals are grown and harvested, their role within the flavour of gin, the stories behind the producers and their brands, as well as exactly where and how different gins are made. The book offers a country-by-country look at the best examples to try.

Global cocktails are covered too, including the history and country of origin of some of the best-known mixed gin drinks.

For everyone and anyone who wants to understand more about gin, its history and production methods, the countries that have contributed to making it a global success story, and to appreciate the best gins the world has to offer, this is the definitive guide.
