Description
A Most Noble Water presents an entirely new history of gin. Researched and written by award-winning drinks historians Jared Brown and Anistatia Miller, it shatters the whole notion of a Dutch origin and revisits English gin's German antecedents and definitively English origins. A Most Noble Water is the first book to present in detail the recipes that led up to the development of modern-day gin and includes them verbatim. And it is heavily footnoted, so every reader can argue with the authors-or not.
