Mumbai: Sipsmith is one of the only gins in the world made using the traditional “one shot” method, rather than as a concentrate. A robust gin, the several layers of flavour come from the 10 botanicals used in its maceration. At 41.6% ABV, Sipsmith London Dry Gin uses juniper berries, coriander seed, angelica root, liquorice root, orris root, ground almond, cassia bark, cinnamon, orange peel and lemon peel.
Flavourful, this gin works its smooth magic on the palate and will hold magnificently in a martini. It balances the various ingredients and puts out a unified palate that is rich yet doesn’t overpower the usual Gin and Tonic. With floral, summer notes and a sharp citrusy taste that offsets the juniper berries, this one is an all-weather friend in India.
