I'm planning a gin tasting evening and wondering how many gins to bring along.

Format of the evening: I'll talk guests through each gin, just enough to get an idea of what it's about. I'll also share brief overview of how gin is made, and have some fun with a gin aroma training kit. We'll taste each gin neat, then add ice and a mixer to finish it off.

So, imagine you're at an event like that. How many gins would you prefer to taste?

Good tasting day today, handed out a few 10/10 perfect scores. Only a couple of duds. Lists for all but two flavour groups starting to look fairly settled and complete.

Can't say yet which ones got top marks - got to keep something back for the book! - but I can say one was French, one was South African and two were English.

Getting a bit poetical in my tasting notes today. If gin were a town... Juniper driving the citrus party bus... I wonder what's next.

First gin out the tasting blocks today is a belter.

I didn't expect anything from this gin, so it's a really pleasant surprise to boot.

Tasting a 'gin' that, while absolutely delicious, doesn't seem to contain any juniper at all. And marking it down accordingly.

Love it, but I can't put it into the book.

The arrival of this gin takes my samples count to:

🍸 306 gins, from
🌐 32 countries

This one came all the way from Tasmania. I've heard good things about it so can't wait to try it out.
