Could Domestic Initiatives Help Sake Soar Stateside?
Although it’s one of the country’s most traditional beverages, sake’s popularity is waning in Japan. Between 1989 and 2018, sales declined 53 percent, and younger drinkers now have a bevy of options to choose from, whether it’s beer, whisky, cocktails, or even wine. Sake, seen as an old person’s drink, doesn’t have the same cachet. The article Could Domestic Initiatives Help Sake Soar Stateside? appeared first on VinePair .

London Craft Gin Cruise Preview: Interview with Wessex Distillery
This summer I’ll be hosting the London Craft Gin Cruise, plying our guests with the finest craft gins and having a right old good time. We’re lucky to be joined on our June cruise by the talented folk behind Wessex Gin who have one of the finest selections we’ve tried. And we’ve tried a few. Rebecca Monks, their events manager, was kind enough to answer our questions! What do you feel sets you apart from other gins out there? "Wessex is a family run distillery. Our Gooseberry and Elderflower Gin, along with our Rhubarb and Ginger Gin, are made up of one-third fresh pressed fruit juice. This sets us apart as most distilleries use artificial flavouring in their gins. Therefore, our Gins are much more fresh and tasty. We have also recently won the IWSC UK Gin Producer of the Year! Since opening in 2017, our Wessex Gins have won multiple international Gold awards. Our Wyvern Classic Gin has won four gold international awards." Which gins will you be bringing along to the cruise

Top 10 Gins from the Nautilus Smugglers' Club 2020-2022
So from June 2020 to August 2022 the Nautilus Smugglers’ Club delivered the finest gins around the gins round. It was a labour of love. As well as giving me the opportunity to meet a lot of people and talk about gin, it also kept me relentlessly trying amazing gin. Anyway, here are my favourite gins from the ones we sent out of those two years. 1. Defiance Old Tom (May 2021) I’ve featured two Old Toms in the club, but this is probably my favourite. Sweet and smoky on account of the pine sap syrup used in the process. Oldham’s Defiance are probably my favourite distillery simply by virtue of them having three of the finest gins I’ve tried. Purchase here 2. Lind and Lime (January 2021) I like a flavoured gin, but it’s unusual for me to like one this much. Based in Leith and released while the new distillery waits for its whiskey to age, this is lime and pink peppercorns but the magic is in the balance of lime and juniper. Purchase here 3. Tarsier Dry (January 2022) I’m pretty fickl

What should beer labels say?
With all the coverage recently about what the labels on alcoholic drinks should or shouldn’t say, one side that nobody thought to ask is us, the consumers.
