Perfect balance, a lovely mouthfeel, and a modernized classic botanical expression make it an intriguing gin in the sense that it-could-have-been-made-like-this-over-a-century-ago sort of way. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. I taste a mix of juniper, obviously, but not overwhelming, nice earthy tones, perfect amount of spice ‘liquorice’, floral and potentially lemon citrus, and coriander. There may be less juniper in the batch, but because the gin lacks earthy, rooty aromas, it allows the other botanicals to rise higher and shine a little brighter.

The perfect balance between tradition and modernity with this Bermondsey (London) Dry Gin; perfect for all classic gin cocktails. An interesting evening hosted in a small craft gin distillery - informative, relaxed , atmospheric and convivial with some nice drinks supplied - we had a great evening and I would recommend this. Bursting with juniper flavour, with a luscious texture and aromatic bite, Jensen’s is a taste of what London Dry used to be. The recipe uses a greater number of botanicals than the London Dry with the emphasis on the lower spice and root notes.

Bartenders who use Plymouth as their house pour would also probably come to like Jensen Bermondsey Gin in that same role. As an alternative to tonic, combine our Bermondsey Dry with Fentimen’s Rose Lemonade, lemon wheels and plenty of ice. It is a true London distilled dry gin made to a recipe from the 1800s so does not include cucumber, rose, grains of paradise or any of the other 'contemporary' gin botanicals. Jensen’s Bermondsey Dry Gin is a classic London dry style gin, and this is evident from the nose forward.Jensen Bermondsey Gin stays true to its origin story in working only from botanicals that were widely available in nineteenth century gins. In accordance with the NSW Liquor Act 2007, it is against the law to sell or supply alcohol to, or to obtain alcohol on behalf of, a person under the ages of 18 years. This expression is a London dry gin, boasting a host of traditional gin botanicals built around a solid core of juniper, though those other botanicals do get their fair share of attention. But if you care more about the quality of the product than the thing that contains it, this is for you.

Charlie gives a great entertaining potted history of UK alcohol consumption and the history of the distillery.

My wife and I (a non-gin drinker) spent a few hours at Jensen's on a Saturday afternoon in the company of the highly informative and amusing Charlie. You will not be liable for accidental damage to equipment, except where damage has been caused as a result of recklessness or wilful negligence.
