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
"Mythic doesn’t seem terribly appropriate here. Standard is a more apropos title. The hallmark notes come marching in the usual order. Juniper, crushed coriander, lemon rind, and a big aroma of neutral spirit. The palate is equally simple and straight-forward. Juniper berries, chopped up soap, crushed cereal, mild spice, and the soap comes back again for a bitter finish. Make a 1:1 ratio gin and tonic and put a little lime wedge on the rim for good measure."
