Crafted in small batches using traditional botanicals, Jensen's pays homage to gin as it was meant to be. Jensen Bermondsey Gin also works well in other heavy-on-the-gin cocktail applications like the Alaska Cocktail or the Arsenic and Old Lace.Further investigation led Christian to discover that Old Tom gins were rarely sweetened at the distillery but rather drinking establishments would often 'stretch' the gin further by adding water, sugar and extra spices to beef up barrels of gin. On the palate, the gin offers a long and smooth finish that highlights the flavour of juniper, making it an excellent choice for a classic Martini. Celebrating the flavours of vintage gin from London’s lost distilleries, you and a guest can go on an after-hours tour of The Bermondsey Distillery, home to Jensen’s gin.

Fentimen’s floral flavours work beautifully with our juniper and citrus notes, creating a crisp and refreshing drink.Please always read the labels, warnings, and directions provided with the product before using or consuming a product.
