Don’t just mix, but elevate!

Simon Ford had always been passionate about Gin — and you know how passionate people get… they like to shake things up a little. And we mean that quite literally. The question that started it all goes something like this: “Does the ultimate Gin for cocktails even exist?” And sorry for the spoilers, but yeah, now it does. And that’s all thanks to Simon teaming up with a group of bartenders, distillers, and professional drinkers who embarked on a journey to create the perfect mixer. They meticulously experimented with different botanicals and classic cocktails, even going so far as to create detailed flavor maps, until finally, after countless attempts (well actually, after 83), they struck gold.

Their Fords London Dry Gin is the ultimate expression of gin-making artistry. It is crafted at Thames Distillery in London under the expert guidance of 8th-generation master distiller Charles Maxwell, a true veteran of the art with over 40 years of experience. This Gin is created from a neutral grain Spirit made from the finest English wheat and infused with a symphony of 9 botanicals, including juniper, coriander seed, lemon peel, bitter orange peel, grapefruit peel, angelica, cassia, jasmine, and orris. The result is a one-of-a-kind flavor profile that has earned universal acclaim from professional and at-home bartenders alike.

Hardcore Gin lovers say the word Martini should never be preceded by Vodka, lobster, or pomegranate. They say the original and the only real Martini consists of Gin, Vermouth & olives, period!
As with many other Spirits, Gin was originally intended to be used as a medicine—to battle malaria.
London Dry Gin is not always from London. Gin does not have the same geographical restrictions as Spirits such as Cognac, Scotch, or Tequila. Only a tiny handful of London Dry Gins are actually made in the city.
Few Gin distillers make their own alcohol. Gin usually starts with neutral Spirit: A commodity that distillers buy in bulk. It’s what the distiller does with this commodity in the flavor-infusing process that makes each Gin different.
As producers try to develop new styles and flavors of Gin, to push the category and find a niche, the need for trying new methods of extracting flavors, as well as using more unusual botanicals, has grown.

One such way is the vacuum distillation method, when the redistillation of botanicals takes place in a vacuum.
Classifications of Gin: London Dry Gin, Plymouth Gin, Old Tom Gin, Genever or Dutch, New Western or new American or International style.
