Description
Simon Majumdar has often described his life as a “shallow search for the perfect Martini.” And he is not alone as Gin has become fashionable again and is now one of the most drunk spirits in the world. But, the fascinating history of Gin has seen it travel from medieval Italy, through the Low Countries of the Netherlands and then to Great Britain, where it became the ruin of the lower classes. In this episode, Simon will see how Gin became “Mother’s Ruin” and its road back to respectability. So make sure to follow along every week and subscribe!
