GINGIN
Gin was created mainly for medical purpose. Credit for its discovery goes to Dutch professor of chemistry Frenciscuc de la boe (1614-1672) was associated with the recognition of diver tic properties of oil of juniper berries. Using a distillate from rye, he rectified or redistilled with the flavor of juniper berries & perfected in medicine. It was used as kidney ailment. The medicine was just sold under the name Geniovre, the French word for juniper. The English soldiers bought this drink very popular in England. It was then known as Dutch carriage. Soon it was given the name of gin.

TYPES OF GINTYPES OF GIN
1. BRITISH OR LONDON DRY GIN-In England gin mash contains less corn & more barley,bcoz English distillers feel that this produces a spirit of extra ordinary smoothness. These gins are distilled at a high proof, then redistilled in the presence of juniper berries. These gins are ideal for drinking straight, in martinis or mixed in cocktails.

2. AMERICAN DRY GIN- American gins are usually produced by one of two methods, distilling or compounding. Use in mixed drinks.
3. DUTCH GIN/ HOLLAND GIN/ GENEVER GIN OR SCHANDINAVIAN GIN -production method is different.The Dutch usually begin with a grain mash of equal parts of barley malt . Corn & rye, distilled in a pot still at around 100 proof. The initial distillation is known as malt wine, is then redistilled in the presence of juniper berries in another pot still at a low proof, which carries congeners & produces Dutch gin’s full bodied character. Dutch gins are usually heavy , with very complex, malty aromas & flavors. They have a pungent, full taste of juniper berries.
