London Dry Gin 24 Beefeater

Beefeater 24 is a London Dry Gin distilled in Kennington, London, starting from wheat alcohol and traditional botanicals, including juniper, licorice root and angelica to which are added Sencha green tea, Chinese tea and grapefruit zest . The botanicals remain in infusion for 24 hours, three times more than a normal gin, in order to extract the maximum flavor. Distillation follows in copper stills with attention to the smallest details, especially in the final cut by the Master Distiller Desmond Payne.

Of crystalline and transparent appearance, this gin has an intense aroma of juniper on the nose, surrounded by splendid citrus notes. In the mouth it is delicate and velvety, with herbaceous and juniper hints, and a delicious finish on notes of tea.

Ideal to serve as a digestive at the end of a meal or as an aperitif, it is an excellent ingredient for cocktails and long drinks.

The name of this distillate, 24, not only corresponds to the number of hours in which it remains in infusion but is also inspired by the hectic London life active 24 hours a day. And also the packaging plays on elements that fully represent the London style: from the Ruby Ballas, gem of the British crown resting on the bottom of the bottle, to the blue and red colors that recall the uniform of the Guards guarding the Tower of London (the Beefeater, in fact) and to the small crow, visible only through a circle engraved in the bottle, as a tribute to the legendary birds whose presence has always been considered a protection of the British crown and the tower itself.
