About these units
Gill (UK) (gi (UK))
A UK gill equals 142 mL, traditionally used in measuring spirits, whiskey, beer, and cooking ingredients. The gill was once a common pub measure, with quarter-gill and half-gill servings used before modern standardized alcohol units replaced them. While now mostly obsolete, the gill is still recognized in historical cocktail recipes, British literature, and the study of older trade practices.
Tun (tun)
A tun is a historical large cask unit commonly used in the wine and brewing industries, typically defined as 252 imperial gallons, or roughly 954 liters. It represented one of the largest standardized cask sizes in medieval and early modern Europe. Originally used for transporting wine, ale, and oil, the tun played an important role in commerce and maritime trade. Because taxes and tariffs were often levied per tun, its definition became central to economic regulation. The size also reflected the maximum volume that could be reliably transported in wooden casks without structural failure. Though obsolete today, the tun provides valuable insight into historical logistics, taxation, and the evolution of standardized container sizes in European trade networks.
