About Humphrey Taylor London Dry Gin
Humphrey Taylor London Dry Gin is a 48% London Dry Gin, distilled in London as a small batch gin. The high alcohol content provides a distinct and concentrated gin experience, allowing the classic botanicals to stand out clearly.
The recipe is associated with the historic Taylor family and a tradition of distillation dating back to 1770. The gin is distilled at Thames Distillery in London by Master Distiller Charles Maxwell. The bottles are designed in an elegant carafe style and are individually numbered.
Botanicals include, among others, juniper, coriander, cinnamon, angelica root, orange, lemon, and star anise. The combination creates a classic London Dry profile with clear juniper, citrus freshness, and a characterful touch of liquorice from the star anise.
About London Dry Gin
London Dry Gin is a style of gin where juniper must be the dominant flavour, while other botanicals contribute with citrus, spice, and aroma. Despite the name, a London Dry Gin does not have to be produced in London – the term primarily describes the production method and style.
London Dry is typically associated with a dry, clean, and classic profile, making the style particularly well-suited for Gin & Tonic and classic cocktails. Humphrey Taylor takes it a step further with its 48% alcohol content, which provides a more intense and striking taste experience.
