7.5/10

Named after the legendary wit, this New York gin delivers biting florals and citrus — a spirit as sharp and complex as its namesake.

8/10

Dorothy Parker excels in cocktails. The elderberry-hibiscus gives a natural colour and the cinnamon adds depth. The medium finish with gently warming florals and citrus lift makes it incredibly versatile at 44%.

Dorothy Parker gin is as witty as its namesake. The elderberry and hibiscus create a gorgeous berry-floral quality, while cinnamon adds warmth and citrus peel lifts everything. At 44% ABV it's bold and characterful.

7/10

The elderberry and hibiscus are lovely but they push this firmly away from traditional gin territory. At 44% ABV the juniper tries to hold its own but the berry-floral character wins out. A nice spirit but barely a gin.
