London Dry Gin Old Herold Strana 1 z 1

London Dry Gin is an icon of the gin world and still represents the quality standard against which other styles are compared. Its typical dry, clean taste features a pronounced juniper aroma, a hint of citrus, and fresh herbal tones. It is made from grain distillate, to which botanical ingredients such as juniper, coriander, angelica, cardamom, and orange and lemon peels are added during distillation.

What does "London Dry" mean

Despite its name, this gin does not have to be produced in London – the term "London Dry" refers to the production method, not the origin. It is a style where the addition of artificial flavors, sweeteners, or colorings after distillation is prohibited. Thus, every drop comes exclusively from natural botanicals, giving the gin its exceptionally clean, dry profile.

A traditional base for modern cocktails

London Dry Gin originated in the 19th century when distillation technology improved. The result was a smoother and more balanced distillate – ideal for the new cocktails that became legends.

It remains an integral part of classic drinks like Gin & Tonic, Martini, or Negroni, but it also tastes great neat with a cube of ice.

What's next

If you enjoy bolder and more aromatic flavors, discover also dry gin with a citrus character or barrel-aged gin, which matures in oak barrels and gains a subtle touch of vanilla and wood.
