Recently went on a trip to Pickerings Gin Edinburgh. I learned they use D/Paid alcohol then triple distil with flavour infusions and dilute with R/O.
My daughter also bought me a Gin Kit. = Buy cheap Vodka, infuse with flavourings for a week at least. Filter and enjoy.
On our Birthday party we did a big Gin tasting with a variety of premium small batch gins and ours.
I made Sandaig Samhain Gin (Juniper, cardamon, allspice and kaffir lime leaves) and a 'pink herring' (Juniper with red peppercorns and citrus peels)
Overwhelming success with 'our' gins and no bad heads the next day.:thumb:
Is DIY better? Certainly not thinking of buying any more posh bottles,,,,
