Proper English Excellence
This is what English craft gin should taste like. At 46% ABV, Cotswolds Dry has real depth — grapefruit peel, bay leaf, and lavender combine with classic juniper for a gin that is complex and utterly satisfying.

Lavender Can Be Divisive
While beautifully made at 46%, the lavender note in Cotswolds Dry is quite prominent and I found it slightly soapy in a Martini. It works better in a G&T where the tonic mellows the floral character. Personal taste, admittedly.

Wonderful Lavender Notes
The lavender in Cotswolds Dry is beautifully judged — present enough to be distinctive but never overpowering. At 46% the London Dry framework is robust, giving this gin real presence in any serve.
