Really do love this gin – not too botanical but extremely good flavour. I like it with a squeeze and slice of lime and Fevertree or Folkingtons light tonic. Added punch is a little slice of chilli. Perfection in a glass! The makers of Sipsmith gin are so passionate about their tipple, they brought about a change in the law so they could create it. When co-founders Sam Galsworthy, Fairfax Hall and Jared Brown began their distillation journey in 2008, it was only possible to get a licence to produce the spirit in large quantities. So, they petitioned the government to permit artisans to brew in smaller, more characterful batches. And so the gin-aissance began.

Sipsmith London gin is my go to gin. It’s botanicals blend well with flavoured (eg Elderflower) tonic whist it’s overall smoothness means the odd neat tipple doesn’t go amiss. I’ve tried many unflavoured gins but I always return to Sipsmith. It’s one I recommend to all my friends and relations. Well done to the team. If you like gin and want the smoothest, tastiest, dry and crisp London Dry Gin look no further. Everything is in the detail from the liquid through to the hand dipped wax seal, no compromise! My absolute favourite for a G&T loaded with ice a lemon twist….
