London dry gin
Classic botanical liquor
London dry gin is a style of gin defined by its production method rather than its origin—it can be made anywhere.
The "dry" indicates no added sweeteners after distillation, and all botanical flavors must come from redistillation rather than being added later.
Juniper dominates, with citrus peel and coriander as common supporting botanicals.
Most classic gin cocktails call for London dry gin.
