Sipsmith London Dry Gin 750 ml

• Description: Sipsmith London Dry Gin is a quintessential expression of a classic, traditional London Dry Gin, handcrafted in small batches at London's first traditional copper pot distillery in nearly 200 years. It is distilled from the finest English wheat spirit with ten carefully selected botanicals sourced from around the world, including Macedonian juniper berries, Seville orange peel, Italian orris root, Spanish licorice root, Angelica root, coriander seeds, cassia bark, cinnamon, ground almond, and lemon peel, and blended with the exceptionally pure water of Lydwell spring, the source of the River Thames. This meticulous "one-shot" distillation process, using only the heart cut of the run, results in a bold, complex, and aromatic gin that is both smooth enough for a Martini and balanced enough for a Gin & Tonic.
