Fifty Pounds London Dry Gin Rare & Handcrafted

Fifty Pounds London Dry Gin Rare & Handcrafted is a premium gin produced at the Thames Distillery in the heart of London, England. It emphasizes a smooth, classic London Dry style, crafted using traditional methods and natural botanicals sourced from four different continents. The name "Fifty Pounds" pays homage to the Gin Act of 1736, which imposed an annual fee of fifty pounds on those wishing to distill and sell gin, a measure aimed at controlling the rampant gin craze in London at the time.   

Key Features:

• Rare & Handcrafted: This highlights the gin's small-batch production and attention to quality.   
• Classic London Dry Style: It adheres to the traditional characteristics of a London Dry Gin, with a focus on juniper as the dominant botanical and no artificial flavors or colors added after distillation (though the term "flavored" can sometimes be loosely used).

  • Licorice (Italy)
  • Savory (France)

Awards and Recognition:

• Double Gold Medal at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition in 2013.
