Gin FAQs
What is a dry gin?
A dry gin, such as the Cotswolds Dry Gin, is one where no artificial flavourings or sweeteners are added after distillation. It’s defined by bold juniper notes balanced with citrus and spice, creating a clean, crisp taste that’s ideal for classic serves like the gin and tonic or martini.
What is the most popular dry gin?
The Cotswolds Dry Gin is among the most celebrated English gins, known for its rich botanical blend and signature cloudy appearance when mixed. It’s a multiple award-winning spirit that captures the essence of a true London Dry style with a distinctive Cotswolds twist.
Can I drink dry gin straight?
Yes, you can drink dry gin straight, especially premium gins like the Cotswolds Dry Gin, which offer a smooth, aromatic flavour profile. Enjoy it neat or over ice to appreciate the depth of juniper, grapefruit, and lavender botanicals.
What is the difference between gin and whisky?
Gin and whisky differ mainly in their base ingredients and production. Gin is distilled from a neutral grain spirit and infused with botanicals, primarily juniper. Whisky, on the other hand, is made from malted barley and aged in oak casks, developing deep, complex flavours over time.
