Ramsbury London Dry Gin (70cl, 40%)

Ramsbury London Dry Gin is made from wheat grown on the Ramsbury Estate in Wiltshire, England. The distillery produces its own base spirit and redistils it with botanicals, including fresh quince grown on the estate. Coriander, angelica root, orris root, liquorice, cinnamon, lemon peel and orange peel are also used. The gin is made in small batches and bottled at 40% in a 700 ml bottle. It suits a classic gin and tonic. On the nose, juniper leads, with quince, liquorice and coriander, plus freshly cut grass and citrus notes. The palate combines juniper and citrus with warming spice, quince, floral notes and pronounced sweetness. The medium-length finish is soft and silky, with lingering citrus.
