It all started in a room above the Portobello Star pub at 171 Portobello Road, London, where after 9 months of hard graft, research, experimentation and cocktails, the perfect gin blend was crafted by the award-winning licensed victuallers of the Ginstitute, Messrs. Feltham, Burger and Lane.  Created with bartenders in mind, and designed to be mixed, the recipe calls for a blend of nine completely natural botanicals and eschews the contemporary trend for ever more esoteric ingredients, instead saluting London's distillers of the past. A classic botanical selection, with cassia bark and nutmeg concomitant, contrives a timeless London Dry Gin with a depth of flavour and character to suit all occasions and libations. With enough of those robust gin flavours like juniper, citrus and coriander to make a Gin & Tonic, but with enough elegance to work in a martini and spices that create a depth of character and intensity to work in drinks like a Negroni, these botanicals combine to create a uniquely versatile gin.
