Beefeater London Dry Gin is a Gin hailing from England.

What is Beefeater London Dry Gin?

Beefeater London Dry Gin is a classic gin that has been distilled in London since 1863, using a recipe that has remained unchanged for over 150 years. What's particularly fascinating about Beefeater is that it's one of the few gins in the world that still uses whole botanicals in its distillation process, including rare Japanese Sencha tea and Chinese green tea, which contribute to its distinctive flavor profile.

Why do we love Beefeater London Dry Gin?

Beefeater London Dry Gin stands out for its bold juniper flavor and crisp citrus notes, which come from steeping its botanicals for a full 24 hours before distillation - a longer process than many other gins use. This iconic gin has been made in London since the 1800s using the same nine botanicals, including rare Japanese and Chinese teas, making it a true taste of the city's gin heritage.

How do you drink Beefeater London Dry Gin?

Beefeater London Dry Gin shines in classic gin cocktails, where its juniper-forward profile and citrusy notes can take center stage. While it's crisp enough to sip neat or on the rocks, this versatile gin truly comes alive in mixed drinks, making it perfect for warm summer evenings or as a refreshing aperitif year-round. Its bold flavors pair wonderfully with light, herb-infused dishes or seafood, complementing rather than overpowering delicate flavors.

Nose: Juniper-forward with bright citrus notes. Lemon and orange peel are prominent, backed by earthy angelica root and coriander. A hint of licorice and almond adds complexity.

Palate: Crisp and dry. Juniper remains the star, supported by zesty citrus and warm spice. Orris root provides a subtle floral touch, while angelica contributes an earthy undertone. The nine botanicals create a balanced, classic London Dry profile.

Finish: Medium-length and clean. Juniper and citrus linger, with a gentle warmth from coriander and a touch of spicy black pepper. The finish is dry and refreshing, inviting another sip.

Beefeater London Dry Gin is crafted using a traditional steeping method, where botanicals like juniper, coriander, and citrus peels are soaked in neutral grain spirit for 24 hours before distillation. This lengthy steeping process, combined with the use of hand-selected botanicals and a recipe that has remained largely unchanged since the 1860s, contributes to Beefeater's distinctively bold and complex flavor profile.

  • Beefeater's iconic bottle design features images of eight Yeomen Warders (aka "Beefeaters"), but if you look closely, you'll notice one is always facing backwards. This quirky detail was added as a nod to the distillery's founder, James Burrough, who was known for his attention to detail and love of hidden surprises.
  • During World War II, the Beefeater distillery in London was bombed, destroying much of the building. However, the copper stills miraculously survived intact. These same stills, now over 100 years old, are still used to produce Beefeater Gin today, lending a unique historical character to every bottle.
  • Beefeater's recipe calls for steeping its botanicals for a full 24 hours before distillation - an unusually long time in the gin world. This extended "maceration" process allows for a deeper extraction of flavors, particularly from the Seville orange peels, which are said to give Beefeater its distinctive citrusy punch.

      Bang for its buck

      This spirit has been a staple of my bar for the better part of the last year. When I first started getting into gin, I grabbed this as one of the more recognizable bottles in my local (franchised) liquor store. Since trying it and employing it in several of my favorite cocktails, I have been impressed by its quality for its price point. A fantastic workhorse that everyone should try.
