How To Make Odin's Easy Gin (3x6)
: 15, 2019
I have been looking forward to making gin for a long time and Odins Easy Gin seems like the perfect place to start.
This recipe was developed to be an easy, simple base that people can alter as they see fit.
Odins Easy Gin:
1L of 43% neutral spirit
12g Juniper
Skin of one tangerine (I used orange)
3g of coriander seeds
Slightly crush the juniper and the coriander then macerate (soak) all of the botanicals in the neutral spirit.
If you are distilling with the botanicals in the still let it macerate for 24hrs. If you pan to strain the botanicals our before distilling soak for 2 weeks.
Distil slowly like a spirit run, throw away the first 10ml then collect the next 400ml. Proof down to 40-50abv.
The gin will improve in flavour over the next few weeks.
