We've enthused over gins infused with saffron, exotic African fruits, and more botanicals than you can shake a stick at. New Amsterdam gin plays it straighter than that, although it does have bright, citrusy notes. The recently launched spirit (from E.& J. Gallo Winery and not, as might be expected, New Amsterdam Brewery) was inspired by New York City: Its name, of course, refers to the 17th-century Dutch settlement that evolved into modern-day Manhattan, and the gin comes in a bottle shaped like a skyscraper. Added bonus: It's $13.99 a bottle. Unlike almost everything else about NYC, it's cheaper than you'd think.
