Broker's London Dry Gin, 70cl, ABV 40%

Product Information

Langley distillery uses only traditional pot stills for the production of Brokers Gin. This is because pot stills are better for extracting maximum flavour from the botanicals in a traditional hand-crafted fashion. The distillery has a mini-still, which is used for making small batches of gin from different recipes. The recipe for Broker’s Gin is 200 years old and was chosen after taste-testing against several newer recipes. The base spirit for Broker's Gin is quadruple-distilled pure grain spirit made from English wheat. The flavour is provided by ten natural botanical ingredients, the primary one of which is juniper berries. The botanicals are steeped in the base spirit in the still for 24 hours. The spirit is then distilled a fifth and final time.

Appearance: Crystal clear, displays long legs on swirling,which then become droplets on the side of the glass.

Tasting Notes

The palette is hot and spicy juniper. A good deal of heat and warmth. 94 proof, enough to keep you toasty on a winter’s eve. Starts with a hint of juniper before the citrus aromas absolutely flourish. Questo gin straordinario viene prodotto utilizzando le piante selvatiche che si trovano sulle montagne intorno alla distilleria. Le piante vengono tutte raccolte a mano ed inserite fresche (non secche) nell'alambicco entro poche ore dalla raccolta. Successivamente, vengono distillate lentamente per estrarre i sapori delicati in piccoli lotti. Tutte le bottiglie sono etichettate a mano segnalando il numero del lotto e della bottiglia, la data di imbottigliamento e la data in cui sono state raccolte le botaniche stagionali. La conoscenza, l'esperienza e lo sforzo che vanno in ogni bottiglia rappresentano ciò che la rende così speciale. Al naso sprigiona note primaverili, l’aroma del ginepro è chiaramente riconoscibile, così come quello degli agrumi. In seguito, emergono le note floreali, più estive, poi quelle della frutta autunnale e infine le note speziate più adatte all’inverno. È un gin ideale per tutte le stagioni. So what is the healthiest gin? It’s not really a fair question. Alcohol is not healthful and if you’re drinking you should be aware of that fact. Notes:Made in a 200 year-old gin distillery outside London- triple-distilled spirit is used to macerate/steep the ingredients which are then distilled a 4th time in a copper pot still.

Magnus and Co., and Republic Restoratives ( ) A cookie set by YouTube to measure bandwidth that determines whether the user gets the new or old player interface. Drinks: Makes a excellent martini, but remember to adjust your dilution and cooling to compensate for the slightly higher proof (in other words shake it a little longer). That being said, it will chill better than most as the higher proof seems to keep the botanicals blended better at a colder temperature than most and gives you a lovely molten glass appearance. It will cater to those martini drinkers who either remember the older style of gin (and martinis), or aspire to know what it was (and is)-a little less subtle, (but balanced), more body for the old style crowd or someone who wants to try something a bit different. One of my favorites for a gin and tonic which can actually be a more difficult drink for a gin to stand out in. I started out with the Gin and Tonic and it quite much caught my fancy. Bright notes of juniper and a touch of citrus. Well balanced with the tonic water.We reserve the right to audit our suppliers operations to ensure compliance with the Act.

Martini is nice, but I find it good and not exceptional. I’m looking for that one thing to stand out here and quite unfortunately, complimented with Vermouth, it seems to take on an “everyday” sort of feeling. Where’s that balance?

Broker's Gin Details

Broker’s Gin was launched in the 1990’s. Supposedly created based on an early 18th century recipe— botanically, probably not in terms of base spirit, the base spirit is clean and clearly column distilled— it’s known as one of the bigger juniper-forward classic-style gins on the market today. Il Gin, in questo caso, viene ridistillato con ulteriore frutta, fiori, spezie e, naturalmente, un sacco di petali di rosa freschi. I tried it in a Negroni, and found that those earthy notes were amplified: think cinnamon merengue, or carmelized oranges with a touch of fresh juniper. Overall, Broker’s Gin
