Gin is a versatile spirit that lends itself well to creativity, for both mixologists and distillers. Its botanical blend isn’t hamstrung by some set definition: distillers use gin as a blank canvas to challenge and delight palates and create libations for every taste.
With cannabis gaining more acceptance and increased legalization, it’s no wonder there’s more experimentation and inclusion in spaces like beer and spirits.
One such distiller, The Cannabis Company, from Melbourne Australia, set out to produce what they claim is the world’s first cannabis gin, releasing a small batch of 300 bottles called “The Myrcene.”
