The contents and the information are extremely rich.
This is an excellent guide with the history of gin and recipes.
I felt that it is one of those books which look better in print. The design was not entirely to my taste but it is nevertheless a wonderful book about gin.

*Big Gin* is the ultimate gin lover's guide, taking you on a journey through the history, botanicals, and culture behind this iconic spirit. As a couple who loves experimenting with cocktails on date nights, my husband and I have had a blast trying out some of the recipes featured in the book. We even made a gin and tonic so refreshing that it became our summer go-to drink!

The book dives into everything from the origins of gin during London’s Gin Craze to the new wave of distillers pushing the boundaries of gin today. For us, it was a fun way to learn about the different types of gin while sipping on our own creations. The chapter on botanicals was especially eye-opening—who knew that gin's flavor profile is so complex?

With detailed profiles of gin brands like Hendrick’s and Tanqueray and recipes for classics like the Martini and Negroni, we found ourselves eager to expand our gin collection and try new things. Whether you're a gin aficionado or just looking to level up your cocktail game, *Big Gin* is a must-read for anyone who appreciates this bold spirit.
