Jackson Wu on Never Never Triple Juniper Gin

10/10

The Ultimate Juniper Gin

If juniper is what you love about gin, this is your holy grail. Never Never have created the definitive juniper-forward London Dry at 43%. Three times the juniper, three times the pleasure. Extraordinary.

Mei-Lin Wu on Broken Bones Navy Gin

9/10

Powerhouse Navy Strength

At 57% this is a beast but a remarkably refined one. The linden flowers add a honeyed floral note that tempers the heat beautifully. The cardamom and lemon zest play off each other brilliantly.

Helena Kosta on Empress 1908 Gin: The Colour-Changing Showstopper With Substance Behind the Spectacle

8/10

Floral and elegant

The rose petal persistence on the finish is really beautiful. Grapefruit citrus keeps things from getting too sweet, and the coriander spice adds backbone. Victoria Distillers have crafted something genuinely enjoyable.

Wei Zhang on Etsu Pacific Ocean Gin

9/10

The ocean in a glass

There's a subtle saline quality here that must come from the Sea of Japan water. It pairs gorgeously with the yuzu and bitter orange. At 45% this London Dry is crisp, clean, and utterly compelling.

Jason Steel on Bordeaux Distilling Noble Rot Botrytis Old Tom Gin 2020

8/10

Honeyed Old Tom

The noble rot botrytis imparts a gorgeous honeyed, apricot quality to this Old Tom at 42% ABV. It's sweeter than most gins but the 2020 vintage character gives it real distinction.

Marianne Blom on Never Never Triple Juniper Gin

9/10

Juniper Taken to Eleven

Never Never have created the ultimate juniper expression. Three different juniper treatments give this London Dry an incredible depth and resinous complexity. At 43% it's absolutely glorious.

Nia Okafor on Booth's Dry Gin / Bot.1970s

6/10

Past Its Best

While historically interesting, this 1970s Booth's at 40% has lost some vibrancy over the decades. The juniper core remains but the overall profile feels a bit flat and one-dimensional now.

Benjamin Ross on Edinburgh Gooseberry and Elderflower Gin

8/10

Garden Party Gin

This tastes like an English country garden. The elderflower is fragrant and the gooseberry adds a lovely sharp edge. At 40% ABV it's light and approachable.

Tyler Bennet on FEW Barrel Gin: American Oak and Hops in a Gin That Thinks It's Bourbon

8/10

Brilliant Barrel-Aged gin

The caramel sweetness from the oak works beautifully with the juniper spice. Citrus brightness from the lemon and orange peel cuts through the richness. The long finish with oak tannins is deeply satisfying.

Grace Kim on Malfy Gin Con Limone: Italian Sunshine in a Bottle, With a Caveat

8/10

Lemon done properly

Unlike many citrus gins that use artificial flavouring, Malfy's Amalfi lemon is genuine and vibrant. The sweet lemon oil with iris earthiness creates real depth. The cassia warmth is a lovely touch.

Ruth Banks on Wacholderbar Veltliner Grapes & Saffron Gin

8/10

Bold Botanical Choices

Using Veltliner grapes and saffron is a brave move and it pays off handsomely. There's a richness and warmth here that sets it apart from typical London Drys. The 44.7% ABV supports it well.

Liam Anderson on Chase Rhubarb and Apple Gin

9/10

Herefordshire in a glass

Chase's rhubarb and apple at 40% captures the English countryside. The tartness meets sweetness perfectly, the potato spirit is silky, and the Flavoured gin style feels authentic rather than gimmicky. Field-to-bottle excellence.

Omar Diallo on Sacred London Dry Gin Certified B-Corp

7/10

Ethical but middling flavour

Sacred's B-Corp certification is commendable and the vacuum distillation at 40% produces a clean spirit. But the flavour profile of this London Dry is quite gentle — the juniper lacks assertiveness and the botanicals feel restrained. Good ethics, average gin.

Olivia Park on Mermaid Gin

8/10

Distinctive and Smooth

What sets Mermaid apart is the rock samphire — it gives this London Dry at 42% a subtle saline, coastal quality. Combined with the smooth spirit and bright citrus, it's a distinctive pour.

Priscilla Nunes on Ki No Tea Kyoto Dry Gin

8/10

Unique and Refined

You won't find another gin like Ki No Tea. The Japanese tea influence at 45.1% ABV adds layers of flavour that are subtle, complex, and completely original. A sophisticated sipper.

Suki Patel on Edinburgh Cannonball Navy Strength Gin

10/10

An Absolute Masterpiece

Edinburgh Cannonball is the benchmark for Navy Strength gin in my book. At 57.2% it's extraordinarily powerful yet astonishingly smooth. The depth of flavour is staggering. Worth every penny.

Kai Oliveira on Archie Rose Signature Dry Gin: Australia's Native Botanicals, Beautifully Harnessed

10/10

A masterclass in modern gin

This Contemporary gin from Archie Rose is extraordinary. Every botanical earns its place — the blood lime, dorrigo pepper, river mint, and lemon myrtle create a symphony of flavour. The long, distinctive finish is unforgettable. Worth every penny.

Natasha Volkov on Mousehall Sussex Dry Gin

8/10

English Country Gin

A London Dry that evokes the Sussex downs. At 43.2% it's well-structured with a pleasant balance of juniper, herbs, and gentle citrus. Unpretentious and well-made.

Gianluca Ferro on Devil's Botany London Dry Gin

10/10

Devilishly brilliant gin

Devil's Botany at 40% is a London Dry that punches well above expectations. The botanical blend is devilishly clever — clean juniper with perfectly judged supporting players. The dry finish is immaculate. Don't let the modest ABV fool you — this gin has real depth and character. Outstanding.

Natalie Ford on Booth's Finest Dry Gin / Bot.1958

10/10

A Piece of Gin Heritage

This 1958 Booth's Finest is among the most remarkable gins I've ever tasted. At 40% ABV the London Dry style has been preserved in a time capsule of juniper, spice, and elegance. Absolutely priceless.
