Gin is a distilled alcoholic beverage primarily flavored with juniper berries, which give it a distinctive pine-like aroma. It is made through the distillation of a grain or malt base, infused with botanicals such as herbs, spices, and fruits. These botanicals provide complex, aromatic flavors that vary by brand. Gin is versatile, commonly enjoyed in cocktails like the Martini or Gin & Tonic, and can range from dry to sweet varieties. Its production emphasizes purity and balance, making it a popular spirit valued for its clarity, aroma, and diverse flavor profiles.
