There are only a few spices, collectively known as botanicals, needed to achieve the flavor of No.3 London Dry Gin: Juniper from Italy gives it an unmistakable taste of pine and lavender. Orange peel from Spain provides freshness in its purest form, and grapefruit peel adds an extra citrus touch. Angelica root helps to make the gin dry. Coriander seed from Morocco releases a lemon aroma and gives it a slightly spicy finish. And finally, cardamom adds an aromatic spicy touch and a warm sensation. The gin is produced by the legendary Berry Bros & Rudd, one of the oldest beverage merchants in the world, with businesses in the sector since 1698, and they believe that the use of more botanicals that could compromise the essential flavors of a true London Dry gin is unnecessary. The name No.3 refers to the address on St James's Street in London, where Berry Bros & Rudd has been based since its founding. Gin No. 3 unabashedly celebrates the integrity and character of traditional London Dry Gin: distilled in traditional copper stills, ensuring perfectly balanced flavors – in other words, it's the 'taste of tradition'. To make a good gin and tonic with London No. 3, simply add a lemon peel to maintain the tradition of a good gin and tonic.
