Gordon’s London Dry Gin
From Tanqueray Gordon & Co Ltd
Multi-awarding winning classic, made to the same exacting standard as Alexander Gordon held in 1769, Gordon’s Gin is an unashamedly juniper-prominent gin: classic in a bold, fresh style. It is complemented by a sparkle of citrus and a gentle black pepper The spirit is rounded out by a luxuriously smooth texture and touch of sweetness.
Gordon’s London Dry Gin was developed by Alexander Gordon, a Londoner of Scottish descent. He opened a distillery in the Southwark area in 1769, later moving in 1786 to Clerkenwell.
The Special London Dry Gin he developed proved successful, and its secret recipe remains unchanged to this day. The distinctively refreshing taste comes from the finest handpicked juniper berries and a selection of other botanicals. It’s the taste that’s made Gordon’s the world’s best-selling London Dry gin.
