THE LONDON N.1 GIN

‘

Detailed Description
The London No. 1 Original Blue Gin is, in fact, distilled in London. However, due to the pale blue color which is added post-distillation it is not a “London Dry Gin”. It is produced using 12 botanicals including savory, bergamot, licorice, cinnamon, and iris root and an English wheat neutral spirit. It is bottled at 47% ABV.
London No.1 Gin Tasting Notes
Nose: There are bright citrus and piney juniper notes coming through as you take a whiff of the gin.
Palate: The spices seem to dominate the gin with the earthy tones taking a backseat. This makes the gin seem to pop out of your glass. The licorice adds a gentle sweetness and the cinnamon comes through on the finish which is enhanced with the 47% ABV.
Palate: Slightly sweet at first warming to a warm soft gingerbread and whisky mouth feel.
