Although it disappeared for a long time Booth’s Finest Old Dry Gin was a legend amongst juniper aficionados. Now the iconic brand has been resurrected by Sazerac the incredible company behind Buffalo Trace Van Winkle Weller 1792 Blanton’s Eagle Rare Corazón Sazerac de Forge and many more.
Established around 1740 Booth’s is the original cask-aged gin. The Booth family founded the first distillery in London located in Clerkenwell. Not only did they become a key player in the early gin boom but they also set a standard that would lead to the capital’s pre-eminence in gin distilling. Famed for its trademark red lion and hexagonal bottle Booth’s is one of the oldest gin brands on the planet and it warrants inclusion in any serious collection.
Using a centuries-old recipe Booth’s Finest Old Dry Gin is crafted with the world’s finest botanicals and is matured in exquisite Sherry casks. This oak ageing imparts that wonderful golden colour subtle Sherry nuances and an unrivalled mellowness.
Expect crunchy juniper rosemary and grapefruit notes alongside creamy oak chamomile tea golden sultanas and spices. Although the brand predates the Negroni by more than a century and a half it was almost as if Booth’s Finest Old Dry Gin was made for the cocktail. We also think it will make a spectacular Martini.
