Each June 11 there’s a global celebration of gin: World Gin Day!

And a week later it’s World Martini Day, so it’s an exciting time for me and an excuse,in case I needed one, to mix myself something agreeable in a glass.  🙂

In times past I’ve hosted tastings, been a guest at gin launches and staged fabulous degustation dinners, but this year I opted for a quiet night in and a fireside chat.

Get comfy, and I hope you enjoy my take on the modern history of the evolution of craft gins around the world over the past 20 or so years.

I touch on the following brands:

• Aviation
• Island Gin from New Zealand
• Jensens Dry Gin
• Ki No Bi
• Kangaroo Island Spirits
• Little Juniper
• Melbourne Gin Company
• Martin Millers
• Plymouth
• Tanqueray No.10
• Tempus Two
• plus others!

See you next week for a look at some interesting facets of the Martini.
