Never Never Distilling Co Wins Best London Dry Gin Trophy
28th July, 2026
The Gin Guild is delighted to congratulate Never Never Distilling Co of South Australia, whose Triple Juniper Gin has been awarded the Best London Dry Gin, presented by The Gin Guild, at the 2026 Australian International Spirits Awards.
Organised by Melbourne Royal, the Australian International Spirits Awards is recognised as one of the Southern Hemisphere’s leading spirits competitions.
The awards attract entries from distillers across Australia and around the world, with judging undertaken by an experienced panel of spirits professionals. Alongside major championship trophies, the competition recognises excellence across a wide range of spirit categories, including London Dry Gin.
The Gin Guild is proud to sponsor the Best London Dry Gin trophy, celebrating the category that remains the benchmark for technical excellence in gin production.
A London Dry Gin must be produced entirely by distillation using natural botanicals, with juniper as the predominant flavour and no sweetening or flavouring added after distillation.
This year’s winning expression, Triple Juniper Gin, exemplifies these principles, placing juniper firmly at the heart of the spirit while delivering exceptional balance, freshness and complexity.
Pal Gleed, Director General of The Gin Guild, said:
“Congratulations to the team at Never Never Distilling Co on this outstanding achievement,
…London Dry Gin remains the definitive style of gin and demands exceptional skill to produce successfully. Triple Juniper Gin is a wonderful example of the quality, precision and craftsmanship that continue to define this classic category.”
Founded in 2016, Never Never Distilling Co has established an international reputation for producing bold, flavour-driven spirits and has received numerous accolades for its range of premium gins.
The Gin Guild extends its warm congratulations to the entire Never Never Distilling Co team on this well-deserved success.
