Process & Profile

James Gin London Drizzle 750mL is a distinctive British gin created by James May, inspired by the scent and feeling of light rain hitting warm London pavement. Designed as a playful twist on the idea of London Dry gin, London Drizzle captures an earthy, fresh, and lightly savory profile with a unique botanical approach.

The recipe features beetroot, lovage, and ginger as key botanicals, supported by bay, orange, juniper, coriander seed, angelica root, liquorice root, cubeb pepper, rosemary, caraway seed, and salt. Beetroot brings earthy depth and a subtle savory quality, while lovage adds herbal brightness and ginger delivers gentle warmth. Orange peel adds citrus lift, helping balance the deeper root and herb tones.

At 40% ABV, James Gin London Drizzle offers a balanced gin experience that is both classic and unusual. It has the structure to work in a gin and tonic, the depth to shine in botanical cocktails, and the unique character to stand out for gin drinkers looking for something different from a traditional London Dry style.
