Modern GinAlso has been referred to as "Contemporary", "New Western", "New Wave", and "New American". This style is not legally defined. In general, this category of gin, while it does contain juniper, places less of an emphasis on this botanical. Other botanicals not classically used in London Dry gins are often utilized and often highlight botanicals grown in the region the gin is produced. Most produced as either London Dry or Distilled Gins.

Tasting Notes
"This starts out peppery but then gives way to big notes of licorice, cloves, and chlorine. As the gin sits, the chemical smell of chlorine starts to overpower the other aromas. The pepper and licorice return in a big way on the palate. The mouthfeel is warm and oily due to the alcohol. The finish shows a light bitter lemon note. Put this in a Last Word to embellish those herb and licorice notes."
