Production Details:
Unlike many modern gins, Luxardo London Dry is produced using a traditional pot still and a time-honored botanical mix. The core botanicals, juniper berries, coriander, angelica root, cinnamon, orris root, and citrus peel, are infused in alcohol for 24 hours before distillation. The process yields a spirit of exceptional balance and clarity, bottled at a robust 43% to maintain full flavor integrity. Every stage is guided by the same meticulous standards that define Luxardo’s historic liqueurs.

Perfect For:
Ideal for classic cocktails that celebrate simplicity and precision. A perfect base for a dry Martini, a bright G&T, or a crisp Negroni. Picture a rooftop evening, twilight setting in, a chilled glass in hand, and the clean, citrus-juniper aroma cutting through the warm air, effortless sophistication.

Interesting Fact:
Luxardo originally began producing gin in the early 1900s, supplying naval officers stationed along the Adriatic coast. Today’s Luxardo London Dry Gin remains true to that heritage, using the same recipe revived from the family archives.

Serving Suggestions:
Serve with premium tonic and a twist of lemon peel for a classic G&T. For a more refined serve, stir with dry vermouth and garnish with a lemon zest for a crisp Martini. It also pairs beautifully with herbal liqueurs like Luxardo Maraschino for a sophisticated Aviation cocktail.

Distillery Background:
Founded in 1821 by Girolamo Luxardo in Zara, the Luxardo family has built one of Italy’s most respected distilling legacies. After the distillery was destroyed during World War II, it was painstakingly rebuilt in Torreglia, near Padua. Today, the seventh generation continues to produce premium spirits that blend innovation with authenticity, each bottle, from gin to liqueur, carrying the Luxardo hallmark of quality and Italian elegance.
