Stirling London Dry Gin

Stirling London Dry Gin is a classic London Dry gin produced by the Boomsma distillery in Leeuwarden, the Netherlands. The producer describes it as a juniper-forward, clear-bodied gin rooted in a long distilling tradition.

How is Stirling London Dry Gin made?

The gin is double distilled in a copper pot still. Alongside juniper berries, angelica, coriander and various other plants are used. During distillation, only the middle cut of the distillate is taken; the heads and tails, which carry heavy, unwanted notes, are separated out. This selective method aims to give the gin a clean, balanced character.

What does Stirling London Dry Gin taste like?

Crystal clear, the gin brings out the warm, dry yet smooth flavour of juniper berries on the palate, accompanied by coriander and herbal botanicals. The producer describes it as an aromatic gin with a pronounced juniper and citrus profile.

How is it served?

The producer suggests serving it with fresh cucumber slices, or with fresh herbs and pepper. It also forms a suitable base for cocktails such as the Tom Collins, Bramble and Dirty Martini, alongside the classic gin and tonic.

What does Stirling London Dry Gin pair with?

Its juniper- and citrus-led structure pairs well with grilled fish and seafood, olive-oil-dressed green salads, and light meze platters.
