Clean and Precise
There's a cleanliness to this London Dry at 42% ABV that speaks of Japanese spirit-making traditions. The botanicals are perfectly defined and the finish is immaculate. Really well made.
27 November 2025Barrel-Aged Perfection
Zuidam Dutch Courage Aged Gin 88 is the finest barrel-aged gin I've ever tasted. At 44% ABV the oak maturation is flawless — adding richness and warmth while preserving the botanical core. Extraordinary.
5 March 2026Full-strength theatrical gin
Green Room's Navy Strength at 57% is pure theatre. The botanical intensity is remarkable — every flavour is cranked to maximum. The juniper commands attention and the warm spice supporting cast delivers. A Navy Strength for the dramatic.
9 December 2025East Meets West Beautifully
The longitude in the name hints at the Japanese origin, and the gin at 42% blends Eastern and Western botanical traditions seamlessly. A London Dry with a Japanese accent.
4 March 2026Spring cap nostalgia
The spring cap closure is a gorgeous detail, and the liquid inside this 1950s Gordon's at 40% doesn't disappoint. Mellowed London Dry character with soft juniper and gentle botanicals. A beautiful vintage experience.
5 April 2026Stealth Quality
Incognito London Dry is a gin that serious gin lovers will adore. At 40% ABV the quality is exceptional — clean, balanced, and juniper-driven with a flawless dry finish. Deserves to be famous.
29 December 2025Gorgeous Pink Creation
Mermaid have created a stunning pink gin at 38%. The colour is naturally beautiful and the flavour is delicate and fruity. It elevates a simple G&T into something special.
8 February 2026Solid Dry Gin
Good juniper presence with interesting herbal undertones. The 41% ABV is a nice touch — just enough strength to carry the botanicals without being harsh. A dependable pour.
27 January 2026Fruity but lacking depth
Chase's rhubarb and apple combination at 40% is pleasant but straightforward. The Flavoured gin profile delivers exactly what it promises — tart rhubarb and crisp apple — but doesn't add much complexity beyond that. The potato-based spirit is smooth, just a bit one-note.
22 December 2025Vintage London character
A 1970s Gilbey's at 40% offers insight into mid-century London Dry production. The spirit has aged gracefully, with mellowed botanicals and soft juniper. A gentle, elegant vintage gin.
2 December 2025Great Little Rhubarb Gin
The small bottle format is perfect for trying Jim and Tonic's Roobee Rhubarb. At 40% the rhubarb flavour is tart and authentic. A proper flavoured gin with real craft behind it.
14 March 2026Fairtrade gin done right
Fair Juniper at 42% proves that ethical sourcing and great gin aren't mutually exclusive. The juniper is front and centre — bold and resinous — and the London Dry profile is clean and well-made.
6 March 2026Savoury and Surprising
The umami concept sounds gimmicky but it genuinely works. At 42% ABV there's a savoury depth — almost like dried mushroom or soy — that creates an entirely new gin experience. Bold and clever.
21 March 2026Seasonal Gin Done Right
A winter-themed gin that actually delivers on its promise. The warming spice notes at 40% ABV make this London Dry ideal for the colder months. Great with warm tonic and a cinnamon stick.
10 December 2025Good value London Dry
For the price, Tork at 42.8% delivers impressive London Dry quality. Clean juniper, balanced botanicals, dry finish — it ticks all the boxes. A gin that deserves a spot on more home bars.
4 December 2025Innovation in a bottle
Jim and Tonic's Kraft Hopped Grapefruit at 42% is the most creative London Dry I've tasted. The combination of citra and hallertauer hops with zesty grapefruit peel is genius — tropical, bitter, citrusy, and utterly addictive. This is what happens when passion meets imagination. Absolutely outstanding.
23 November 2025Nice Cherry but Thin Body
The sour cherry flavour is lovely and authentic, as you'd expect from Luxardo, but at 37.5% ABV the gin feels a bit lacking in body. The London Dry base could do with more structure.
7 December 2025Clever but cold
Cambridge Distillery's technical prowess is evident at 42%, but Newton's Drop feels more like a science experiment than a gin to love. The London Dry profile is precise and clean — perhaps too clean. The individual distillation of each botanical creates purity but seems to remove some of the warmth.
2 May 2026Wild Hebridean Spirit
Isle of Raasay's Hebridean Gin captures the wild beauty of the Scottish islands. At 46% ABV this flavoured gin has a rugged, maritime quality with herbal and floral notes. Truly distinctive.
25 April 2026Solid All-Rounder
Brecon Special Reserve is the kind of London Dry you always want in the cupboard. At 40% it works in everything — G&Ts, martinis, cocktails. Reliable and well-made.
