Frequently Asked Questions
Boodles British London Dry Gin is a brilliant British spirit crafted with meticulous labor and patience, beginning as a clean spirit distilled from British wheat before being redistilled in a Carter Head copper still for optimal botanical infusion. This classic juniper-driven London Dry gin features a unique recipe containing no citrus botanicals—a practical decision made by original distillers who expected a brilliant drink to include a fresh citrus garnish. Instead, it showcases carefully selected botanicals including juniper, coriander seed, angelica root, sage, rosemary, and nutmeg, which create a mellow yet herbal quality that perfectly balances the essential piney notes. With its 40% ABV providing the ideal balance between strength and smoothness, Boodles presents a bright, juniper-forward palate with subtle hints of caraway, sweet spices, and surprisingly, notes of lemon rind despite its recipe, making it exceptionally versatile for classic cocktails like Gin & Tonics, martinis, and more complex mixology creations.

Process & Profile Boodles British London Dry Gin is meticulously crafted in the heart of England. Each batch begins with a clean, neutral spirit made from British wheat, which is then redistilled in a Carter Head copper still. This traditional method allows the carefully selected botanicals to gently infuse, ensuring a refined and balanced gin. Notably, Boodles stands apart by excluding any citrus botanicals; instead, it relies on a sophisticated blend that includes juniper, coriander seed, angelica root and seed, cassia bark, caraway seeds, nutmeg, rosemary, and sage. This absence of citrus was a deliberate choice by the original distillers, expecting the drinker to add their own citrus garnish. The result is a gluten-free, smooth spirit with a harmonious balance of herbal finesse and classic pine-driven character.
