New Amsterdam Stratusphere London Dry

New Amsterdam Stratusphere London Dry is a different take on gin compared to the original New Amsterdam Gin. Here's what you can expect:

Key Differences from Original New Amsterdam Gin:

• Style: As a "London Dry" gin, juniper is expected to be the more dominant botanical, adhering to the traditional style. This contrasts with the original New Amsterdam Gin, which is citrus-forward with less prominent juniper.
• Alcohol Content: Stratusphere London Dry often has a higher ABV, around 47% in some bottlings, compared to the original's 40%. This higher proof is often aimed at bartenders for cocktail creation.
• Flavor Profile: While the original has distinct notes of orange, lime, and vanilla, the London Dry version shifts towards a more classic gin profile with a focus on juniper and citrus.

Tasting Notes (based on available information):

• Nose: Expect a more traditional gin aroma with a noticeable presence of juniper alongside fresh citrus notes. Some describe it as having a grapefruit-like or bitter orange rind scent with hints of pine and coriander.
• Palate: The palate is described as having a balance of juniper and citrus. You'll likely find bitter orange notes early, with some sweet and spicy facets and a deep zestiness. Juniper tends to come through in the mid-palate.
• Finish: The finish is often smooth and rich with lingering citrus, particularly Seville orange and sometimes hints of red grapefruit and citron. Some reviews note a slightly metallic tinge.

Botanicals:

While the exact botanical list isn't always explicitly stated, it includes:

• Juniper (as a prominent note)
• Citrus (likely a blend including orange and potentially others)
• Coriander
• Potentially cassia and other traditional gin botanicals

Overall Impression:

New Amsterdam Stratusphere London Dry aims to be a more traditional, juniper-forward gin compared to the original New Amsterdam Gin. While still having a noticeable citrus character, it offers a drier profile suitable for classic gin cocktails like a Gin & Tonic or Martini, though some reviews suggest it works better in cocktails with flavored tonics or more complex ingredients due to its strong citrus notes. It's generally considered an upgrade from the original, especially for those who prefer a more classic gin taste.
