Bombay Sapphire East London Dry Gin (70cl, 42%)

A London dry gin built on the classic ten-botanical composition, with Thai lemongrass and Vietnamese black peppercorns added to make twelve botanicals. All twelve are infused by vapour rather than boiled in the still. The gin is bottled at 42% in a 700 ml bottle. Nose: lemon and lemongrass, with black pepper adding spice alongside juniper. Palate: lively citrus and lemongrass with juniper, prickling black pepper and a silky mouthfeel. Finish: long, with lemongrass and black pepper, juniper fading with a lavender note.
