Jensen's Bermondsey Dry Gin (700ml)

Founded by avid Gin historian, Christian Jensen, this micro distillery is at the vanguard of Gin distillation’s return to its spiritual home of London. Using a 500 litre, stainless steel and copper still made in London by John Dore and co. head distiller Dr Anne Brock meticulously crafts tiny batches based on Christian’s extensive research.

Their Bermondsey Dry Gin is a delicate and nuanced interpretation of London Dry from the classic cocktail period. All botanicals are steeped in the still in British wheat base spirit. While the precise list of botanicals is a secret, the floral nose and liquorice accented palate indicates classic support from coriander, orris, angelica, citrus and liquorice. 43% Alc./Vol.

Tasting note: Crystal clear. Moderate aromas are juniper forward, bordering on floral. Air contact adds subtle coriander, distant whiffs of black pepper, lemon peel and piney eucalyptus-like freshness. Easy entry with nicely integrated juniper, lemon myrtle, white pepper flavours and a creamy, delicate pine wood and light juniper finish. A clean, dry, middle-weight London Dry style for all applications. 43% Alc./Vol.
