Flavored Gin Whitley Neill

There are several different ways of making flavoured gins. One way is to add natural or artificial flavourings to a classic gin. Another way is to soak botanicals in the gin with flavourings before distillation. One can also add flavors after distillation by soaking the gin in neutral spirits that have been infused with botanicals and other flavors. Each method has its advantages and disadvantages. For example, adding flavorings before distillation can lead to a more intense flavor, but it can also be more difficult to control the level of flavor intensity. Adding flavourings after distillation gives you more flexibility when it comes to creating different flavour profiles.

Flavored gins were made for adventurous people. The world loves Gin & Tonic, and while the basic botanical flavors are nothing to complain about, adding fruit extracts can work wonders with the flavor profile of even the best gins. Contrary to popular belief, flavoured gins are sugar-free and contain the same alcohol content as their clear counterparts.
