Gordon's London Dry Gin (40%)
London Dry Gin
Gordon's // Canada
Gordon's Gin was first established in the Southwark area of London in 1769 by Alexander Gordon. Over the years, the site of distillation has moved and is now primarily produced in Scotland. It is, however, distilled in other countries throughout the world and at different strengths. In the U.
S., we get a Canadian product at 40% ABV. The recipe is the same, however. It is a neutral grain base with disclosed botanicals of juniper, coriander, angelica root, licorice, orris root, and orange & lemon peel.

Tasting Notes
"The sweet orange peel and juniper are first to stand out on the nose with coriander following soon after. The body of the gin is neither too rich or too thin with just a touch of oil. The finish is clean and crisp and the botanicals really work in harmony with the sweet notes matching up to the earthy, savory notes. While perhaps the finish could be a bit longer, this is nonetheless a classic gin, and would be perfectly fine in a martini."
