22000historical_info = flavor_eng.217.historical_info The Gin Craze was a period of excessive consumption of gin, caused by increased domestic production and a reduction of imported French brandy as a result of ongoing hostilities between England and France. Gin became the drink of choice for people from all social classes, leading to widespread consumption and a destructive impact on family life. The combination of government regulation, increased prices, and a changing cultural perception of gin gradually reduced its consumption.
