Greenalls The Original London Dry Gin 1L 40% (UK)
๐ฟ Greenalls The Original London Dry Gin brings a long-established English gin recipe to a generous 1 L bottle at 40% ABV. Crafted by G&J Distillers in Warrington, it belongs to a tradition founded by Thomas Dakin in 1761. Its character is recognisably classic: juniper leads, citrus adds brightness, and warm botanical spice provides depth without turning the drink into a fruit-flavoured gin.
๐ Eight botanicals shape the recipe: juniper, coriander, angelica root, almond, cassia, lemon peel, liquorice and orris root. Tuscan juniper, Moroccan coriander and Spanish lemons are among the ingredients highlighted by the producer. Together they build a balance of resinous freshness, rounded citrus and earthy spice. The grain-spirit base gives these ingredients a clear foundation, while copper-still distillation brings their aromatic character together.
โ๏ธ The botanicals are placed into the still by hand and rested in a mixture of grain neutral spirit and water before distillation. The distillers select the heart of the spirit, retaining the central portion of the run for the finished gin. In the glass, expect juniper and citrus aromas, a smooth palate with gentle spice, and a dry botanical finish.
๐ธ Serve Greenalls The Original London Dry Gin over ice with tonic and a lime garnish for a straightforward Greenallโs Gin & Tonic. It can also provide the gin component of a Martini or Negroni, depending on the style of cocktail you prefer. The 1 L format suits a well-stocked home bar without changing the original recipeโs identity. This 40% expression received a Silver medal at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition in 2014. Store the bottle upright, tightly closed and away from direct sunlight.
