Gin is a colourless distilled beverage widely consumed around the world, produced by a number of different methods, but always with juniper as the predominant taste. The volatile content of gin is made up of terpenoid compounds, mainly from juniper berries, but also from other botanicals such as coriander seeds, angelica root or citrus peel. Although some authors have used various methods to develop a vocabulary to describe the sensory characteristics of gin, no uniform vocabulary has been widely adopted. The most usual attributes defined by the tasters were juniper and coriander but spice, liquorice, aniseed, floral and fruity attributes were also reported. |
