Triple distilled to ensure purity and consistency, Gordon’s uses a recipe that has remained unchanged for over 250 years. The result is a clean, refreshing spirit defined by bold juniper, citrus brightness, and a dry, lingering finish.
Simple, timeless, and universally recognisable, Gordon’s Gin is the definitive expression of traditional gin craftsmanship — a spirit that’s as at home in a casual G&T as it is behind the finest bars in the world.
🍋 The Distillery & Heritage
Founded in 1769 in Southwark, London, Gordon’s Gin was the creation of Alexander Gordon, a man with a vision to produce a gin of the highest quality and purity. His commitment to excellence led to the establishment of one of the oldest and most respected gin houses in the world.
The gin’s signature recipe — rich in juniper and citrus — quickly gained popularity and set the foundation for the London Dry Gin style. Today, Gordon’s continues to be produced under Diageo, following the same time-honoured method of triple distillation and careful botanical selection.
For over two centuries, Gordon’s has remained synonymous with consistency, tradition, and the classic taste of true gin heritage.
