It makes a delightful Gin and Tonic. but my favorite is a Martini served up with a twist. Though north of 47% ABV, Nolet Silver Gin is lighter and easier to drink than its strength might otherwise indicate. Overall, Nolet Silver Gin

Ketel One Vodka's success was not built upon clever marketing or PR, it was built by Bob and Carl going from bar to bar, meeting bartenders, forming enduring friendships and telling people about the vodka their father had created. It’s a refreshing drink that’s made in a way, unlike any other gin on the market. The brand uses two almost antique stills to produce its award-winning gin, which is produced in batches of up to 500 liters at a time. The early 1980s saw the launch of Absolut which, thanks to its iconic advertising, transformed the vodka market. As a distiller, Carolus couldn't help noticing the impact vodkas such as Absolut and Stolichnaya were having in America and the number of people who were enjoying them in Martinis. When he tried these vodkas he was convinced that he could make something better – a "softer, silky smooth vodka" without harsh peppery notes. So he set out to make a vodka particularly suited to being drunk neat in a Martini. Joannes exported his family's genever for the first time. Sharing their success, the Nolets support local charities and became respected citizens of Schiedam. During this period the town itself underwent much change, becoming the centre of Holland's distilling industry. The Nolets become distinguished members of the Distiller's Guild.

A producer will start with a base spirit, either sourced from a larger distillery or made in-house. This neutral spirit is then infused with botanical flavor by redistilling it after steeping the botanicals in the liquid or allowing the vapors during distillation to extract flavors from the botanicals hanging in a basket high up in the still. The spirit is then cut to proof before bottling. It was Jacobus' son, Joannes, who put down roots in the United States, travelling to Baltimore before the end of the 19th century. Falling in love with America he personally oversaw the construction and management of the Nolet's Baltimore distillery which opened in 1902. Everything about Nolet’s Reserve gin is superior. The entire goal of the distillery is to create the very best, from the exclusive high quality, invaluable ingredients to the tiny production and minuscule allocation. Today, drinkers can enjoy the diversity of gin.Unlike vodka, each bottle of gin is truly unique. The majority feature some degree of the pine flavor that comes from juniper, which is gin's signature ingredient, yet no two bottles have the same combination of botanicals. The result is a unique gin that encompasses every inch of its name, which translates to “The Beauty of the Seasons.” Alongside citrus, tea, and herbal flavors comes a spicy edge from the ginger root added during the distillation process.

Distilled in Cheshire, England, Bombay Sapphire's full list of vapor-infused botanicals include juniper, almond, grains of paradise, lemon peel, licorice, orris root, angelica, coriander, cassia bark, and cubeb berries. It's old meets new with this gin.

Bols Geneverwas on the U.S. marketuntil Prohibitionand was not available again until the summer of 2008.

Gin is now definitely a global spirit, with excellent examples being made everywhere from the U.S. to Mexico to Southeast Asia, and even the UK has seen an infusion of new gin distilleries. The best thing about this is that each spirit is an attempt to capture some essence of its geography, often using locally sourced botanicals to flavor what otherwise would essentially be, well, vodka. With so many bottles to choose from, we’ve broken down some of the best gins out there to try now by highlighting stellar examples of the new and old school. Here are some of the best gin brands available now, from traditional London dry to brand-new innovations. Founded in Schiedam, Holland in 1691 by Joannes Nolet, the Nolet Distillery has remained a prominent fixture in the city’s distilling history, surviving throughout the French Revolution and two World Wars. The distillery has been exporting spirits to the United States since the late 19th century. Today, the Nolet Distillery is the oldest distillery in Holland that is still in the hands of the founding family, a testament to the strength of the Nolet family. Their tradition of distilling spirits continues through tenth generation owner Carolus Nolet and his two sons, Carl Nolet, Jr., and Bob Nolet. Together their passion for this craft inspired them to create gins of unparalleled distinction for the 21st century. There are several different types of gin including London dry (botanicals are added during distillation, only water and a touch of sweetener allowed to be added afterward); Plymouth (only made at one distillery); and New Western (juniper still present, but other botanicals take centerstage).
