The Gin Craze, also known as the Gin Fever, was a fascinating period in the history of premium gin that unfolded in 18th century London. At Gin Bruni, we invite you to explore this exciting chapter that influenced the evolution of premium gin. From its origins to its impact today, you will embark on a journey through time.
The Rise of the Gin Craze
The Gin Craze began in the first half of the 18th century in London when gin became a popular and affordable drink for all. Its affordable price made it irresistible to the population, especially to those looking to escape the harsh realities of the time.
The ease of production and the low cost of ingredients led to an increase in the production and consumption of gin, which in turn triggered a series of social and public health problems.
The Impact on London
The Gin Craze left an indelible mark on the city of London. The streets were filled with clandestine distilleries and taverns offering gin of varying quality. Excessive gin consumption had serious consequences, including crime, poverty, and a decline in public health.
This period also witnessed the introduction of laws and regulations to control the issue of excessive gin consumption, ultimately leading to a decline in the Gin Craze.
The Gin Craze Today
While London’s Gin Craze is a thing of the past, its influence lives on in the culture of premium gin. Today, gin distillation has become a refined art, and producers strive to create high-quality premium gins that are enjoyed in moderation and appreciation.
