Gin Lane 1751 London Dry Gin

Gin Lane 1751 London Dry Gin shines brightest in classic gin cocktails like gimlets and greyhounds.

Nose: Fresh juniper leads right away, clean and direct. Behind it, bright citrus notes from Sicilian lemon and Seville orange peel add a zesty lift.

Palate: Crisp and dry with a satisfying weight. Juniper stays at the center, but the coriander adds a faint pepperiness that keeps things interesting. The cassia bark brings a whisper of warm spice, while the star anise contributes a delicate herbal quality rather than an obvious licorice punch.

Finish: Dry and moderately long, with a crisp citrus fadeout.

Gin Lane 1751 London Dry Gin is handcrafted in traditional pot stills at Thames Distillers in the heart of London, where 10th generation distiller Charles Maxwell masterfully blends eight hand-foraged botanicals juniper, cassia bark, orris root, angelica, Sicilian lemon, coriander, star anise, and Seville orange into a small-batch spirit that's as rooted in craft tradition as it is in its Victorian-era inspiration.

• The name "1751" isn't just a random number it's a nod to the year British Parliament finally cracked down on London's infamous gin epidemic, when cheap, unregulated gin had gotten so out of hand that roughly one in four buildings in some London neighborhoods was operating as a gin shop. Raising a glass of Gin Lane 1751 is essentially toasting the moment gin went from street-level chaos to civilized sophistication.
• Behind every bottle is Charles Maxwell, a 10th generation distiller whose family roots in London gin-making stretch back over 300 years. That's not a marketing gimmick Maxwell is one of the most respected figures in British distilling, and his fingerprints are quietly on more celebrated gin brands than most people realize. When someone with that kind of generational knowledge blends your botanicals, it shows in the glass.
• One of the eight botanicals used in Gin Lane 1751 is Sicilian lemon not just any lemon, but specifically sourced from.
