Sipsmith is considered a pioneer in the craft gin resurgence. In 2009, they became the first copper-pot distillery to open in London in nearly 200 years, successfully lobbying for legal changes that had previously restricted small-batch distillation. This act ignited the “gin-aissance”, inspiring countless other small distilleries and elevating gin’s image from a mass-produced spirit to a respected craft beverage. They set a high standard for quality and helped educate consumers, fundamentally shaping the modern gin market.
Sipsmith London Dry Gin features a carefully selected blend of ten classic botanicals that would be familiar to a 19th-century distiller, ensuring a balanced and traditional gin taste. Common notes include juniper (prominent), lemon tart, orange marmalade, and a hint of spice.
Smooth and Versatile: Sipsmith is often lauded for its smoothness, making it enjoyable neat, in a classic Gin & Tonic, or as the base for a wide range of cocktails like Martinis and Negronis.
