First Impressions
Conker Dorset Dry uses ten Jurassic Coast botanicals — marsh samphire, elderberries, gorse flowers — with British wheat spirit and New Forest spring water. Slightly less dry than strict London Dry, with bright freshness.
Tasting
The nose is summer meadow with juniper. On the palate, classic juniper with berry jam and gorse-samphire coastal character. The finish is long and intriguing.
The Bottom Line
Conker Dorset Dry earns a 7 for Jurassic Coast terroir in gin. The samphire, elderberry and gorse give genuine local character. Best with elderflower tonic.
