Portobello Road No. 171 London Dry Gin

Freya Lindqvist — Cascading Citrus

9/10

The way the lemon and orange peel cascade across the palate is beautifully judged. The bold juniper framework supports everything, the cassia adds warmth, and at 42% ABV the liquorice sweetness is a nice surprise.

Ravi Krishnan — Nutmeg Warmth

9/10

The nutmeg warmth on the nose sets the tone for a gin of real depth. The bold juniper opening cascades into citrus and gentle cassia, with rounded liquorice sweetness adding complexity. At 42% ABV it's a gin of serious quality.

Andre Dubois — Orris Root Elegance

8/10

The whisper of powdery orris root on the nose is a lovely touch. It adds a floral elegance to the bold juniper and bright citrus. At 42% the medium to long clean juniper-citrus fade is satisfying and clean.
