Today Mike picked us up and took us toThe 4 Sisters Gin Distillary in Trafford, Sue's Christmas present being a two hour gin tasting of craft gins. It is just across the way from the 7 Brothers Brewery, and yes, it's all a family of 11. So we entered a world of pure ethanol mixed with water and a base of Juniper, plus various botanicals. There's always a camera involved as well, so I was armed with my trusty Pentax MX-1 compact, still delivering the goods with its modest 12MP sensor. This of course is also the world on craft distilling, relatively small quantities and specialised recipes. We tasted several sample drinks and listened to the story of both the company and how gin is made. We duly bought a bottle of the Signature Gin, and back at home I see we already have their Strawberry Gin on the shelf. It was a great way to spend a Saturday afternoon!
