“Of all the joints in all the world she had to walk into mine”

Welcome, To the Wonderful World of Gin…

Gin started life in the early 17th century in Holland, although claims have been made that it was produced prior to this in Italy.

WC Fields would start the day with two double martinis, enjoyed either side of his breakfast. He drank about two quarts of gin a day.

Every Gin brand has its own unique fragrance; most consumers have probably only tasted a small number of the gin brands available. In ours there are more than 60 different Gin brands, from 9 different countries; offering a wide spectrum of fragrances, using different botanicals and infusion methods in all shapes and sizes.

Gin is distilled differently. Premium are distilled 3 to 5 times to remove impurities; each brand has a unique formula that provides its special characteristics.

1724 We´re not going to bore you with the usual tonic water history class, we just want to go back to its true origins. So we won´t tell you about the Spanish conquistadors who discovered quinine in the Americas and used it to save the life of a dying countess in the eighteenth century, nor will we recount tales of the ancient Inca civilisation that had used quinine over 100 years earlier, or even that the trees from which the quinine was extracted were to be found on the legendary Inca Trail. All you need to know is that for this tonic they collect the quinine by hand at 1,724 metres above sea level, there where the story began, on the inca trail that stretches from Argentina almost all the way to Mexico.

ADNAMS FIRST RATE (GBR) 48% £10.50 Adnams from grain to glass, their Copper House gin is distilled from three locally-grown grains: barley, wheat and oats. Adnams Masterbrewer, Fergus Fitzgerald, makes a 'wash' from these grains which is fermented to around 6% abv without the addition of hops. Their head distiller, John McCarthy, then takes this beer and puts it through a 'beer stripping' column which removes all the alcohols to create a 'low ' (around 80 - 85% abv). The 'low ' are subsequently distilled in our hand-made copper pot still and purified further in rectification columns to create a clean, pure spirit. Only the very purest portion of the spirit is drawn off; the finest cut. The spirit is then returned to the copper pot still to be redistilled and infused with thirteen carefully chosen botanicals. John spent several months experimenting with different blends to create the signature First Rate flavour with integrated aromas of juniper berries, spice and fresh citrus.

The story goes that the term Navy-Strength was the result of the British Navy demanding gin to be bottled at 57% ABV so that if it was accidentally splashed on gunpowder, the powder would still ignite. It was more likely that it was a weight-saving measure but that is not as fun is it?

Old Tom got its name from an unusual dispensing method used by London gin houses. A tom cat- shaped plaque would be hung outside where passers-by could drop a coin in the animal’s mouth. The proprietor would then dispense a shot of gin from a tube under the cat’s paws.

It was even exported, despite a name complicating sales as the word "byrrh" evokes ideas of similarities to "beer" for English- and German-language speakers. Brothers Pallade and Violet Simon, itinerant drapers, decided to take advantage of the wine fever in the region to develop an aperitif wine flavored with cinchona. They mixed dry wines and mistelles. The resulting product was initially marketed as a health drink or tonic. This was because the local aperitif producers were not happy at competition to their established brands. The brothers re-branded the drink as a health drink to get round this problem, and it was sold in pharmacies. Pernod Ricard still makes the drink at its Perpignan facility, which was designed by Gustav Eiffel.

In 1813, Joseph Noilly created the first recipe for dry French vermouth. To this day, the process has remained unchanged. Still produced in the South of France, the white wines are matured for eight months in large oak casks. Then, in a unique open air process, they are transferred to smaller oak barrels, where for 12 months they are subjected to the elements and take on a deep amber colour. The white wines are then brought back indoors for blending. The fruit essences, including raspberry and lemon, are incorporated, before twenty different herbs and spices are added.

Connoisseurs insist that only adding champagne as opposed to lemonade, makes a true Pimms No1 Cup
