Fully updated to reflect the ever-expanding gin market, it profiles 101 bottles worth seeking out, blending expert tasting notes with dry humour. A must-have reference for anyone building a home bar or buying a gift for a gin enthusiast. About the Book Gin has enjoyed an extraordinary renaissance, with hundreds of new brands now crowding bar shelves and supermarket aisles. In this fully revised and updated edition, Ian Buxton cuts through the noise to help readers make sense of an increasingly crowded market. He explores the artisanal distillers reinventing this classic English spirit, questioning what really separates a genuine style from a marketing gimmick, and tackling the trickier corners of modern gin: rose and cucumber infusions, wood-aged expressions, and the endless debate over the perfect tonic pairing. The book reads as an engaging, opinionated tour through gin, written in Buxton's candid style. Each entry gives readers just enough information to make an informed choice, whether they are stocking a home bar, planning a tasting session, or simply looking for their next favourite bottle. The revised edition brings the selection fully up to date with the latest distillery innovations and shifting trends in the gin world, making it just as relevant to newcomers discovering gin for the first time as to seasoned drinkers looking to expand their horizons. It is a book designed to be dipped into again and again, whether for inspiration before a trip to the drinks cabinet or for settling a friendly debate about which gin truly deserves a place on the shelf.
