Fifty Pounds London Dry Gin, 0.7 L, 43.5%
In the early 18th century, London saw the beginning of an era known as the "Gin Craze". A time when gin was extremely popular among the lower classes of the population and gave rise to numerous moonshiners who sold gin of dubious quality to the people.
To put a stop to this, in 1736 the government came up with the idea of levying a tax of 50 pounds on every gin distiller - with little success as it soon became apparent! After 6 years, only 2 companies had paid this tax.
The Fifty Pounds London Dry Gin, presented in a beautiful vintage gin bottle, produced by the Thames Distillers in south-east London, commemorates this desperate attempt to control the enormous gin consumption in London. Fifty Pounds London Dry Gin is smooth on the palate, with citrus notes and floral aromas.
