London dry

Juniper-forward cocktail base

London dry is a style of gin characterized by its crisp, juniper-forward flavor with no added sweeteners after distillation.

Despite the name, it need not be made in London—the term describes a production method, not a place of origin.

Most classic gin cocktails call for London dry: a martini made with London dry gin.
