- So how do you make Gin? Is it macerated or distilled? Every distillery has their own recipe and process of making it. We stop by Duke Gin in Munich, Germany to see their process in making Gin.
➡️ The Duke features a selection of botanicals that includes orange blossom, ginger root, coriander, lemon peel, angelica root, lavender, cubeb and juniper, among others. The name comes from Henry the Lion, the Duke of Bavaria, who founded Munich in 1158.

🎥 Welcome to the official TH-cam Channel of Beer, Wine & Spirits 🎥
Hi, I’m Jeff Bradford. My passion for beer, wine, and spirits ignited an urge to investigate the stories behind the labels. 🍾🍻
🌏 So, in 2018, I sold everything I owned to travel the world.
My objective: to learn the secrets of brewers, winemakers, and distillers.
From Switzerland to Jalisco, I set out to determine why their process yields extraordinary results.
With each stop on the map, I reveal time-honored traditions, cultural influences, and industry practices that help you discover the soul of these incredible products.
As a former member of the US military, I learn by doing.
You will see me harvesting grapes in South Africa, pouring beer at Oktoberfest, and chopping agave in Tequila. 🍷 🥃
➡️ My channel is dedicated to the passionate, hardworking people who make the beverages associated with our favorite celebrations, special events and amazing moments with those we love.
Join me as I find the next fascinating story about your favorite Beer, Wine, and Spirits.

Gin is my favorite drink
I subbed for channel
robi jr yesssssssssss, so awesome to get these messages. thanks so much for the support and I’m looking to do another gin episode in 2020. 👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻-Jeff
I don’t even drink but the making of alcohol is so fascinating! Especially the spirits. New sub here!👍🏼
You made my day reading this message. Thanks so much and it’s my goal creating content to appeal to everyone and hopefully get value from it. Thanks for taking the time to comment. -Jeff
great classy clean factory
Duke is such a cool distillery right outside of Munich, Germany!
That doggo in the end is the best part of the video, I definitely came for the doggo not for an iconic gin story 🤣🤣
Jacob Frye hahaha 😂 I’m going to start putting puppies into the episode, clearly it will be the star of the show. Hahahaha cheers and thanks for the laughs man. -Jeff
Awesome video as always 👍
Thanks brother really appreciate it. -Jeff
Gin is my favorite spirit! I adore anything herbal!
Yessssssss, I’m all about it. I can enjoy Gin throughout the year and usually my fall back plan when nothing on the drink menu looks great. Cheers and thanks for the taking time to comment. What gins do you recommend? -Jeff
@@drinkdestinations You know I always thought the more expensive the better, but I picked up a $20 bottle of New Amsterdam "Stratusphere" Gin whose flavor profile I was so surprised by! Smooth and citrusy! But I have to say my favorite so far is The Botanist. Super high quality, strong, and extra herbal. Dry gin is the best for me because I really like to discern between the different subtle botanicals and try to guess what they added in. :)
@@BabyBugBug awesome thanks for sharing. I was suppose to forage with James Donaldson August of last year and make Botanist gin. Hopefully I can do it this year. Botanist is amazing.
Cool channel. Love that you go around the world to different alcohol producers. Juniper is a great tree
Thanks so much! It has been an amazing journey learning from all these brewers, winemakers, and distillers. I actually got to pick juniper berries in the mountains of eastern Croatia. I was suppose to Forage with James Donaldson of Bontanist gin and film an episode with him in August. It has been postponed until things get back to “normal”. thanks so much for the comment and really glad you enjoy the channel. Cheers, -Jeff
Respect ✊
Thanks so much brother. 👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻-Jeff

You must come to Perth, Australia! We have tonnes of breweries that make the best craft beers. Love your work.
Dylan Keppler thanks for taking time to comment and Australia is definitely on the list. My thoughts and prayers go out to everyone dealing with the fires in Australia. Hope all is well and when I make it to Perth, first round is on me. Cheers, -Jeff
Looks like a pumber’s paradise!
Very interesting video. Saw this brand in my local shop today. Might have to go back for a sample.
Thanks I am glad you enjoyed the episode. You should definitely try their Gin. Let me know what you think! I’m going to be doing another Gin episode later in the year.
Such an underappreiated channel.

I have been making gin from Arizona Cypress berries that grow on my property here in Nevada. Making it at 180 proof by double distillation, using coriander, angelica root, and a little orange peel. I make a cocktail that I call a Cypress Mule mixing it with ginger beer at 3 ounces Gin and 5 ounces ginger beer. definitly and ass kicker
Cypress berries? Interesting! That cypress mule sounds epic and ass kicker indeed hahahhahaha. Cheers -Jeff

Honored to tell their story, make wine here and South Africa is absolutely amazing. Cheers 👊🏻👊🏻-Jeff
@@drinkdestinations ❤️❤️❤️🍷🍷🍷🍻🍻🍻
Nice
Raju Ac 🙏🙏🙏
Mouthwatering. Love from a retired jr officer from Indian Army. Our government do not permit to brew or distil liquor at home, as, plenty of cashew apples are wasted every year.
Tons of respect to you and thanks for your service to your country! Yeah if the government were to allow home brewer if and distilling it would allow for so many creative things being made! -Jeff
This episode really wanna makes me visit the Duke distillery and meet the guys. Well, it's just 6 hours drive from Croatia, I'm might do that. :-)
It’s such an amazing Gin. I highly recommend you visit. Let me know and will personally connect you with the distiller. 👊🏻👊🏻
It's 10 minutes from where I live. Still didn't manage to go there
I like your journey
Thanks brother. I love learning and sharing information about beer, wine, spirits and the industry.
Wow! Now I’m thirsty 😋
My job is done!!😀😀😀. Hahahaha thanks for the comment brother👊🏻👊🏻
I'm lucky enough to live very near to Munich, where this is made...I'm even luckier to get 20% discount because we stock this in our stores. Life can be so unfair sometimes :-)
Hahahahaha love this comment. It is such a great gin and yes I’m jealous especially of your discount you get hahahahaha. Cheers and thanks for the comment. -Jeff
Plymouth Gin (kept in the freezer) for martinis. Tanqueray Rangpur for an easy and consistently excellent G&T. Finally, Hendrick’s for the most sublime mix of botanicals. I am always open to try new gins but these three are always on hand.
Thanks so much for sharing. I’m the same way and open to try new gins. Hendricks never disappoints and couldn’t agree more about the Rangpur for awesome G&Ts. Never tried Plymouth so I will be on the lookout for that. Cheers and thanks so much for the info. -Jeff
Bombay Extra Dry is also a nice go-to for martinis
Hola im from indonesia. This is good video...

Dude i hope you come to indonesia and try "anggur orang tua" big love from indonesia
Thanks so much. It’s definitely on the list to go. I’ve had so many people talk about Anggur. I’m eager to try it. Cheers and big love right back👊🏻👊🏻-Jeff
@@drinkdestinations also Arak orang Tua the taste identical with jager with slightly acidic taste, but other product like anggur merah, Iceland, anggur putih taste sucks. Sorry to be honest
Nice channel, my wish for reaching great heights.
Thanks so much for the kind words. It’s in the universe, let’s see what happens! Cheers and thanks for the support!! -Jeff
@@drinkdestinations even it's going to be an year now for my channel, still am struggling to grow. Just reached 1k Subscribers.
Interesting! Please keep up with the uploads, maybe come to oz some day and sample our home liquors ⚡
Thanks I really appreciate it! It’s definitely on my list of places to travel. Cheers, 👊🏻👊🏻-Jeff

Wow, super cool. Thanks for sharing. I promise I’m just as ugly in person as I am in Manipur. Hahahahaha cheers and hope you are enjoying the episodes. -Jeff
Im not alcholic drinker but its interesting 😌
Thanks, I’m glad to hear and our goal for our episodes is to be interesting for everyone. One person may like beer, but may not like wine and find out wine episodes interesting. Cheers and appreciate you taking time to comment. -Jeff
Excellent video, but please leave your captions up for an extra couple of seconds.
Steve P thanks for the feedback and I will see what I can do about the captions. Cheers, -Jeff
Beer, Wine and Spirits Interesting info but I had to skip back and pause to read the text. Using a simpler sans-serif font and lowercase style will help.
Gotcha, thanks so much and will get these changes made! -Jeff
@Steve P....pause button, genius.
I am the only one in my family who drinks gin .I can't understand why .Its a classic spirit used in so many cocktails . My favorite is gin and tonic
My youngest brother detested gin .He drinks vodka , Jack Daniels and craft beers .
I love a good G & T and trying different flavoured tonics with it. To each their own I guess. But with the right combo of flavors that you enjoy, gin and tonics are absolutely amazing. What’s your favourite gin? Mine is botanist gin.
We all have our faves for G&Ts, but what are your favorite gins for drinking neat or OTR?
M P for drinking neat I came across a Gin in South Africa called Inverroche which uses local Ingredients from there that most of the world doesn’t have like fynbos that was absolutely amazing. I just tried the new Hendricks midsummer solstice and thought it was really good. Botanist is always a bottle I have on hand, have you tried Roku gin by Santory? Definitely interesting gin using Japanese flavors like sakura leaves, peppers, and different teas. Another limited release I tried was Dorothy Parker rose pedal gin. It was Awesome. Fords gin is a staple I always have. Anyway I could go on and on but this G&T I’m having right now isn’t going to drink itself. Ohhhh I forgot to mention Fever tree is the tonic I use but I don’t have many options where I am currently. tHahahaha cheers, -Jeff
You should try Kyrö distillery... two guys came up with the idea while in sauna 😂 classical Finnish story...
Hahahahaha as it should be. 😀😀😀 I will look into the distillery. Thanks so much for sharing. -Jeff
It almost is a tradition now: Another interesting name you have here though this time not because of the meaning but because of somebody sharing the same name. Hermann von Pückler-Muskau, also known simply as "Fürst von Pückler" is probably distantly related to this gin maker and was a quite interesting person. He was a count with vast lands, a military man (lieutenant general) and traveler (sounds familiar, doesn't it?) but he is mostly known for his park where he spent vast amounts of money and developed a new concept of landscape gardening (though I am no expert in that and cannot tell you much about that). He also was a writer and most Germans know the name Pückler because of an ice cream with three different flavours in one block. I believe you call it Neapolitan ice cream in English even though the oldest known recipe comes from a Prussian cook who honoured Pückler by naming it after him.
How pretentious to call the Gin "Duke" when the von Pücklers were mere Counts... just kidding of course!
Hahahahaha this is really cool info. Keep them coming brother.
That's a great habit of sharing your last visits product. Infact start your new show with that and end it by taking a case for you 😅
rahul murthy Hahahaha you my friend are a genius. Noted and changes will be made for future episodes. 😂😂😂😂😂
#Believe :)
Gin has been made 'by mistake' by the English in an effort to make Jenever so instructed by a few Belgian Jenever distillers. Gin is derived from Jenever.
Good stuff and my Dutch friends always remind of this. Hahahaha. -Jeff
Come in the philippines and taste our tuba liqour in the island of visayas
Sounds amazing. I’ve heard a lot about it actually.
Gin is great alcohol 👌😊👍
Absolutely my friend! Cheers, -Jeff
What is the best way to enjoy Gin. please tell me 🙏
i❤️Gin
Me too! 😀😀
If I find a hair on my Gin, I know who's is it....
😂😂😂😂😂😂
do most gin producers purchase the base grain alcohol from other manufacturers?
I can’t speak for them, but it is one method I have seen. I can see why, it is more convenient, especially on the 💵 side. -Jeff
@@drinkdestinations for sure otherwise its like having two companies which makes no sense profit wise like you said
i don't drink, but i still enjoyed the show
ZoruaZorroark really great to hear and so glad that we can give value to people who don’t drink as well. It is also our goal. Thanks for taking time to comment. Cheers, -Jeff
Middle Eastern Mediterranean liquor is best of best
By the way... There's a bottle-shop chain in Australia called BWS (Beer Wine Spirits) ...just saying.
Probably the coolest store ever!! 😀😀tell them I will arm wrestle them to keep the name. Hahahaha. Australia is definitely on the list of places to come visit. -Jeff
what's the name of the track during generic at the beginning?
Quentin Peruzzi I honestly can’t remember what the music is we used for it. I can try and search for it, but Shazam may be a better option and a lot faster. -Jeff
Loving the video thank you for the information! The third step that you wrote is confusing because your grammar is a little wack. Xoxoxo good job!!! You’ve got a cool life..
Kim Crystal hahahahaha love the comment thanks. Noted and I’m doing a gin episode later this year and will make up for the “whack grammar” I promise . Cheers and thanks so much for taking the time to comment. I appreciate the feedback. -Jeff
Bro you must be the right person for this question... Which tastes better
Whiskey
Gin
Or brandy?
This may not answer your question, but for me they all have a place at the table and each one for me depends on the environment and whose drinking with me. For example, When I’m drinking with people who love brandy, there passion and explanation of what is being sipped enhances everything and I’m tasting the same amazing brandy that when I tried it again by myself I’m like, “I remember this tasting better.” Just like corona beer on the beach tastes way better then on my couch. For me, I’m more of a whisky guy and love cocktails that are made with whisky. That’s my palate. But there is nothing better than a great G&T or a great fruit brandy from the Balkans. Sorry, i guess I’m the wrong guy to ask, or I would be doing just gin, or just whisky or brandy. Lol. Cheers, -Jeff
something I always wanted to know: Why do distilleries distill to very high levels of alcohol (85 in this case) only to add back water after to lower it to a more "normal" percentage? Why not stop the distillery right at 40% for example if that's where' you're gonna end up anyway?
It comes down to flavor and separating chemical compounds to get desired ethanol and congeners. When distilling, ethanol has lower boiling temp. Than water and you capturing a higher ABV. %. If you would capture at lower strength and at the beginning of your distillation, the more volatile compounds like acetone, acetaldehyde etc. its why you hear terms like head, hearts, tail cuts distillers use during distillation.
@@drinkdestinations Maybe I'm just tired but I didn't get anything :P
How long is the fermentation?
This definitely varies depending on yeast, what grain or what your fermenting & your temperature etc. But typically 3-5 days.
Make video on Bombay Sapphire Gin.
I will definitely look into it. They are such a big brand and make gin on a commercial scale. I root for the small guys.
Make trip to India and make videos on McDowells Whisky and Old Monk Rum. These liquors are exported around the globe.
It looks like they infuse already made spirits. So, there is no fermentation going on in this factory. Or did I miss it?
Thanks for the comment. You are correct, We didn’t film making the neutral grain spirit. Only started from the maceration. Future episodes we will definitely touch on that. -Jeff
time to drink gin 🙂😁
Cheers brother
I didn't like gin. This video made me like gin.
Can you please tell me the bgm used for your intro.
I am so sorry, I have no idea what we used, it’s been so long ago. I used epidemic sound for this episode and music selected. -Jeff
@@drinkdestinations that music was awesome so I asked. Thank you and thanks for your reply.
