The London Gin

Headed stateside this spring: The London Gin, a blue-tinted new tonic. Although it's produced by a Spanish spirits company, it's actually a rare example of a "London dry" gin that's made in London, where it's triple-distilled in small batches. And despite the coloring and clear glass (which give it an air of the apothecary), the taste is anything but medicinal. Instead, you'll pick up hints of coriander, lemon peel, licorice, cinnamon, andunique among its competitorsgardenia and bergamot, which you might remember from your last cup of Earl Grey tea. It doesn't get much more English than that.
