Thames Ditton GIN
Made in the traditional London Dry Style, like all good gins our base canvas is juniper which all gins contain giving it its predominant flavour. From its early origins in the Middle Ages, gin has evolved from being a herbal medicine in to a much loved addition to our drinks cabinets. Based on the Dutch drink, jenever, it became popular in the UK and particularly in London, when William of Orange, leader of the Dutch Republic, became King William III, residing at Hampton Court Palace.
Thames Ditton Gin contains the aromatic and medicinal properties of costmary combined with the fragrant qualities of lemon thyme, which are perfectly matched with blood orange to give Thames Ditton Gin it’s unique flavour. Inspired by Hampton Court Kitchen Garden, both of these medieval herbs are still grown there.
“This is the first gin where it has some clean interesting botanicals. I like the citrus notes very clean but they add a perfect balance and cuts through the alcohol and leaves a nice long lasting refreshing drink. Excellent work and for my money one of the best gins that money can buy.”
