I don’t want to go into too much depth about Boodles and their famous London Dry as I’ll reserve that for a later review but in brief, their original gin is distilled from a base spirit of British wheat, infused with traditional herbs and spices including nutmeg, sage and rosemary.

Boodle's gin presents a unique and inspired creation, drawing inspiration from sloe gin and infusing it with the robust and rich flavour of mulberries.
