Before Gin there was Genever:

Malt Wine distilled

Wasn't very good, so they started adding Juniper

Old Tom came next in the 18th century

This is our gin. Not using Malt wine, but instead grain spirits

Then we have a London Dry

Nuetral grain spirits

Uses a column still

Then Vapor infused with an onion top pot still

In the second bubble on top is a gin bag with your herbs. Vapor from below mixes with this and what comes out is gin, then they cut it

Rummer is a “Dry martini” was originally saying you want a london dry gin, not the amount of vermouth

Plymouth gin

Less citrus…
