In this way, a wide range of spirits and gins was born, including Beefeater. In fact, the Beefeater gin began to be marketed all over the world and to have great success.
Various botanicals and ingredients are used to make Beefeater gin, including alcohol, juniper, bitter orange, lemon, almond, and lily. All of them are macerated for at least 24 hours with neutral grain alcohol. Afterwards, the mixture is distilled for 7 hours and finally water is added to moderate its alcohol content.
