Thread: The Gin Map of Great Britain & Ireland

    Default The Gin Map of Great Britain & Ireland

    Hi everyone!

    This is the map that's kept me rather busy the last few months - The Gin Map of Great Britain and Ireland. Using a dip-pen and different calligraphic nibs, it took me over 140 hours to draw, in addition to all the research! There are 97 distilleries and over 150 brands - more than I ever thought!

    If anyone is still searching for a great (and unique) Christmas gift, check out my website - www.manuscriptmaps.com. I have other great maps too!

    The map is great, very nice job! Though advertising for commercial products isn't probably necessary.

    Wonderful work, I love that you went for the very distinctive old look many maps have, I imagine this would look beautiful as a map on the wall...
    Checked out your other maps, too! VERY inspirational, keep this up. Definitely worth a watch, guys! =) REP!

    That's fantastic! Only, I don't drink Gin (gives me a terrible headache), how bout doing one for Scotch In all seriousness though this is one to be proud of. Great job.

    Wow, fantastic work! The style, the coherence, all those icons and drawings... Really great (from someone who is not a gin fan, though ).

    Very nice map, and it is rather astonishing how many types of gin you've included. What a boozy lot the Brits & Irish are!
