The global premium gin market is poised for significant growth during the forecast period of 2023-2029, according to a report by HTF Market Intelligence.

The report offers insights and statistics on the market’s structure, size, changing dynamics, emerging trends, key drivers, challenges, opportunities and constraints. It aims to equip decision-makers with market intelligence and strategic insights to make informed investment decisions and identify growth opportunities.

Market Definition and Categories

Gin is a clear, distilled liquor characterized by its primary botanical flavors, including juniper, florals and both fresh and dried fruit. According to the report, premium gin is defined simply as an exclusive high-quality alcoholic beverage that has gained popularity worldwide.

There are two main types of gins in the market, per the report: distilled gin, created by distilling a mash or fermented alcohol base, and redistilled gin, which involves distilling a neutral spirit a second time. Both types derive their flavors from a mixture of fresh or dried juniper berries and other botanical components, known as the “botanical bill.”

Another category is compound gin, sometimes called bathtub gin, which blends (as opposed to redistilling) a neutral spirit with juniper berry extract and other essences or botanicals.

The market also features specific types of premium gin such as London dry, Plymouth, old tom, and New Western (a contemporary style of gin we call modern in which juniper is not the dominant flavor).
