Love this program !!!

[@jaygallagher6522]

I drive past this place everyday, keep meaning to take a tour and have lunch there

[@rud]

A very productive greenhouse.

[@contambrah]

Looks like a nice place to light a smoke

[@xploration1437]

So, it’s pine tree flavored vodka.

Yeski

[@primusloy]

a good quality gin is much smoother than vodka... and delicious when mixed with juice

[@TheKopakah]

@@primusloy ... depends on the wodka, it can be just as smooth

[@kingjames4886]

no, it's juniper flavored grain alcohol... like just about every alcohol that isn't tequila. and it's usually corn because the high-output commercial yeasts have been bred to more efficiently process corn and the US practically gives corn away so it's most profitable.

Gin Lady is quite pretty

[@DamithaNadeeshaWanniarachchi]

Is she🤔

[@axem.8338]

Yep on point.

[@imnoyed7266]

So it’s not like bourbon, where the name is indicative of the product?

[@Morris2906]

[@Oceansta]

If the commenters weren't so biased and English type daft the channel would do so much better

[@nathanielburbery4890]

What I don't understand is... why take lovely, DRY gin and say that the ONLY way to drink it is with awful, sweet tonic water!?!

[@God-Emperor_Elizabeth_the_2nd]

Gin is just flavoured vodka

[@robertkat]

Gin is always dry, there NO such thing as wet gin. Gin is flavored Vodka.

[@misterhat5823]

That lady is stunning.

[@cipinassssss]

gin is only expensive borovička

[@DouglasRosser]

Such care and craft. But wasn't "gin" invented because the booze coming out of England was awful?

[@joshuataylor3550]

Think the Dutch claim it.

[@1Three8Fiver]

@@joshuataylor3550 it came with William III who due to a trade war with France gave tax breaks with the corn laws that encouraged making spirits and importing of dutch juniper as opposed to importing alternatives such as cognac etc This meant that a pint of gin was cheaper than that of beer and thanks to being popularised by high society but cheap for the masses the drink and its creation and our own variations thrived in the England.
