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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProfiles 101 gins spanning classic brands to small-batch craft distillers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFully revised and updated to reflect the latest releases and trends\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWitty, accessible writing from a respected, bestselling drinks author\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePractical guidance on serving styles, tonics and garnishes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA durable hardback, ideal for gifting or display on a bar shelf\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePerfect for gin newcomers and seasoned enthusiasts alike\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nIan Buxton is a bestselling drinks writer who has worked in and around the whisky and spirits industry for over three decades.
