Join International Gin Consultant David T Smith and botanical suppliers Beacon Commodities for a closer look at the key component of gin: the juniper berry.
The talk will cover how different methods of distillation can bring out different flavours from juniper, including maceration, vapour infusion, vacuum distillation, and even the effects of juniper wood.
Tommy Haughton from Beacon Commodities will also share some insight into the harvesting of the berries and what to look for in quality juniper.
