About the Distillery 

Beefeater London Dry Gin is produced at the Beefeater Distillery, located in Kennington, London, United Kingdom. The distillery has a long heritage and was founded by James Burrough in 1863. It is one of the only gin distilleries that still operates in the heart of London.

How this product is made

Beefeater London Dry Gin is made using a traditional distillation process known as “”London dry.”” The base spirit, which is often grain-based, is first distilled to a high proof. It is then redistilled with a careful selection of botanicals, including juniper berries, coriander seeds, angelica root, licorice, and citrus peels, among others. The exact botanical recipe is a well-guarded secret of the brand.

The botanicals are steeped in the base spirit for a specific amount of time to allow their flavors to infuse. The mixture is then distilled in copper pot stills, which play a crucial role in imparting the smoothness and complexity to the final product. The distilled gin undergoes a rigorous quality control process to ensure consistency and adherence to the brand’s standards.
