Gin is becoming more and more popular, and many people are looking for great ways in which they can add this to their marketing campaign. With many businesses trying to keep themselves up to date with the latest trends and crazes Branded Gin Glasses are flying off of the shelves.

Why has the popularity of gin grown?

Ten to fifteen years ago, the only time that gin would have been used in a bar was far Dry Martinis (even though most of these were Vodka based) and Gin & Tonics. However, in the more recent years this attitude has changed. Many bars now prominently feature gin-based drinks and recognise the spirts versatility.

Cocktails have also played a huge role in the resurgence of gin. This is mainly down to the ingenuity of bar tenders in creating new cocktails that are made mainly from gin, allowing for more people to get a taste for it. Many new small & craft distilleries have begun to open that specialise in the production of gin. With many more distilleries becoming established there is a much larger market for sale of gin.

Surprising gin facts

Gin is English – not Dutch: Genever, a malted spirit that is essentially light whisky with juniper, is the juniper distillate of the Netherlands. Gin was developed in London and is a unique and much purer spirit.

The earliest mention of the word ‘Cocktail’ in reference to a drink was on 20^th March 1798 in the London Morning Post and Gazetter. Inn the newspaper’s satirical account, it was consumed by Pitt the Younger at the Axe and Gate Tavern at the corner of Downing and Whitehall, which was later torn down to expand the Prime Minsters residence.

Gin and tomato juice was all the rage as a hangover cure in New York City in 1928, years before the vodka-based Bloody Mary made is debut at the King Cole Room in the St. Regis Hotel.

Little-known gin facts: the best way to taste gins for comparison is at room temperature, diluted with an equal measure of water. This reveals both qualities and flaws.

The gin and tonic first gained popularity in the British colonies, as then quinine in the tonic water was found to be a potent deterrent to malaria-carrying mosquitoes. However, the bitterness of the quinine was unpalatable, so gin was added to make the drink taste better.
