Where next gyn phenomenon in Spain?

WHAT IT IS?

A gin and tonic is a highball cocktail made with gin and tonic water poured over a large amount of ice. The ratio of gin to tonic varies according to taste, strength of the gin, other drink mixers…

Gin has cemented itself as a firm favourite in the Spanish social scene over recent years. In Madrid for example, whether it be the popular gin & limón, the world renowned gin & tonic (meshed into one word -gintonic- by the Spaniards) or the vast variety of gin infused cocktails offered in bars and restaurants, the bulbous stemmed glasses are a common feature among the trendy party goers of the Spanish capital.

The gin movement has been largely driven by increased due to better economic conditions. More recent trends have further complemented the gin movement, in particular, the rising popularity of strawberry gin among younger generations which is showing no signs of slowing down.

WHY IT´S COOL?

Reasons why gin and tonic reigns in Spain:

Versatility: Far from their predecessors, many of the gins that we can find on the market today are distinguished by their diversity.

Freshness: this refreshing character that is part of its success, since it contains less sugar than other recipes and is considered a pleasure that also quenches thirst.

Complexity: many of the gins that are currently on the market are distinguished by  having gone a step further in the creation of their flavors

Personalization: Perfect Serve , is open not only to the interpretation of each bartender  but also to the taste of each palate

WHY IT HAS FUTURE GROWTH POTENTIAL?

Premium gin’s impressive growth trajectory was instigated in Spain in the last ten years accompanied by higher-prices implemented during the Covid-19 pandemic, when many consumers had the time – and the disposable income – to explore the category.

The extent of gin’s contraction in Spain during 2023, despite record tourist growth, was a clear indication that, not only in Spain but across most of Europe, the momentum for the gin and tonic is changing.

Nowadays, the market remains positive, driven by the cocktail scene and the popularity of locally made gins.

  1. How cool is this "Seed"?

    Does it have future growth potential?

    My dear. I didn’t learn to much from this blog. Apart from the well-known fact that gin is popular and comes with customizing possibilities. Did you read my comments? Did you do the ‘wow’-check? Also your categorization is minimal (again). Please, stay a bit longer after the online meet tomorrow (Monday)

  4. I have been living in Spain for 8 years now and gin tonic has always been THE trend and favourite drink overall. As you say, it is very versatile, it is true that infused gin has been a trend for the last 3 years , but I think the future will be more connected with cocteles with gin.

  5. How cool is this "Seed"?

    Does it have future growth potential?

    Though I love gin and tonics myself (I like to add a splash of St Germain for a little more flavour), I’m not sure if this hit the points Carl wanted.
    I hope the trend continues in Spain because it is an effortless staple that has so many variations, but the classic is always a hit!
