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
"The forest notes really shine through on the aroma with the Grand Fir coming in the strongest. The bay laurel provides for a menthol note which continues on the finish and though the lavender is present, it is used judiciously. You won't find any citrus, of course, as there isn't any. This would best be served in a Last Word cocktail as it's got the stuff to stand toe-to-toe with Chartreuse, but a gin & tonic will do nicely."
