Gordon's London Dry Gin is the yardstick by which so many other gins are measured, a classic London Dry style unchanged since Alexander Gordon first distilled it in 1769. Made from a blend of botanicals including juniper, coriander, angelica root and liquorice, it is triple-distilled to Alexander Gordon's original exacting standards, producing a clean, crisp spirit built firmly around a bold, dry juniper backbone.
On the nose there's an immediate hit of sweet juniper alongside a whisper of lemon zest and fresh herbal greenery. The palate follows through clean and dry, with juniper leading the charge before citrus and a light peppery spice settle in alongside it. The finish is fresh, crisp and refreshingly simple, leaving little more than a clean juniper tang and a lingering note of coriander behind.
First created in London in 1769, Gordon's has grown to become one of the world's best-selling gins, a genuine household name found behind almost every bar in Britain. Its distinctive green bottle and unchanging recipe have made it a byword for the classic G&T, and generations of drinkers have relied on it as the reliable, no-nonsense standard against which every other London Dry gin is judged.
