FinsburyPlatinumGin(700mL)

<p>If ever there was a Gin that served as an institution of London style, this is it. </p><p>The <em>Finsbury Distillery Company</em> was founded in London in 1740 by <em>Joseph Bishop. </em>Across its history the company made a range of Spirits from Liqueurs and Gins to Ginger Wine. But they are best known for their namesake line of Gins. The company was acquired in <em>1993 </em>by the Germany-based <em>Borco, </em>but they largely leave the chaps at Finsbury alone to do what they have been doing for nearly three hundred years.</p><p>The original Finsbury Gin was made on a molasses-based Spirit. But they created <em>Finsbury Platinum Gin</em> to step things up a notch… several notches, in fact. It is based on a neutral Grain Spirit distilled six times for <em>exceptional smoothness </em>and <em>purity.</em> The recipe is a closely guarded secret, but it is crafted in the traditional style of London Dry. You’ll find that it is bottled strong for a Gin at<em> 47%</em> ABV. They insist that it is that precise proof that adds an intensity to the juniper and other botanicals. And raving fans agree. It is a premium Gin sought-after on the<em> craft cocktail </em>circuit.</p>
