Tarquin's Cornish Dry Gin
Southwestern Distillery (Independent)
Tarquin's is among the very few gins in Britain still distilled over naked flame — and you can taste the difference. Direct-fire distillation gives the distiller less control than steam-heated stills, but rewards the skilled hand with a richer, more textured spirit.

Citadelle Original Dry Gin
Maison Ferrand
Citadelle is a quiet genius of the gin world. Nineteen botanicals, each earning its place under Alexandre Gabriel’s direction.

Monkey 47 Schwarzwald Dry Gin
Pernod Ricard (Monkey 47, est. 2010)
Monkey 47 is what happens when obsession meets the Black Forest. Alexander Stein, the founder, wasn’t content with the standard gin playbook of six to ten botanicals. He sourced forty-seven — roughly a third from the forest surrounding his distillery — including lingonberries, spruce shoots, bramble leaves, and acacia flowers. The result is aged three months in traditional earthenware crocks before bottling, a resting step almost no other gin producer bothers with. At 47% ABV (of course), it has the structure to support all that botanical complexity without collapsing into confusion. The fact that it comes in a 375 mL bottle at a premium price has done nothing to slow demand — proof that obsessive quality creates its own market.
