Exploring Gin with the Gin Girl
Cat visited Natasha Bahrami at The Gin Room on South Grand in St. Louis to get a deeper sense of how gins can vary. Bahrami, who has been inducted into the Gin World Hall of Fame, is known as the Gin Girl and is considered a leading expert on gin in all of its forms. Cat tasted a variety of gins, from an Italian gin that smells like a freshly cut tomato to a Norwegian gin with wild blueberries. This is exactly what makes gin so fun! Juniper is the only thing that makes gin, gin. Beyond that, it's up to the distiller to create their own botanical blend.
