Fifty Pounds Gin (75cl, 43.5%)

Fifty Pounds Gin is a small-batch London dry gin produced at Thames Distillery in London. The base is a grain spirit distilled four times, with botanicals from four continents including Croatian juniper, Middle Eastern coriander, Spanish orange and lemon peels, Italian liquorice, French savory, African grains of paradise and English angelica root. Each batch yields approximately one thousand bottles. The nose is clean and classically structured, with bright lemon and lime zest, firm juniper and subtle creamy sweetness. The palate is smooth and focused, led by juniper then layered citrus, with coriander spice, ginger warmth and earthy herbal undertones. The finish is long, dry and clean, with measured astringency and a faint hint of anise cookie.
