Sipsmith London Dry Gin

A balanced, London Dry Gin by Sipsmith in Hammersmith, London, England made with English Barley & 10 carefully selected botanicals then blended with pure water of Lydwell spring; then distilled in a traditional copper pot still. It has an aromatic birth with notes of honey, ripe fruits, a hint of yeast, nuts, chocolate & grape jam; while a dry life adds notes of juniper, lemon tart, orange marmalade & fresh lemon zest; that led to a balanced death of medium length with a hint of lemon tart & spicy juniper.

Juniper,Spicy, Fruity with a touch of Citrus. Super smooth, clean taste. This just sings in a proper martini with Dolin dry/ olives or lemon twist and a Negroni with Cocci Red Vermouth (my first exposure). Don’t waste this in a G&T or gimlet. We are North Shore 6 / 11, Saphirre and St George Botanivore fans, but this is giving them all a challenge.
