Oxley London Dry Gin Cold Distilled 94 is a unique English gin produced using a cold distillation process at sub-zero temperatures (-5°C). This innovative method, utilizing a vacuum still, allows the alcohol to boil at a much lower temperature than traditional distillation. The purported benefit is that it preserves the fresh and delicate flavors of the 14 botanicals without “cooking” them, resulting in a brighter and more vibrant taste.
Key Features:
- Cold Distilled: A unique process using sub-zero temperatures to extract flavors.
- 94 Proof: Bottled at 47% ABV, providing a good intensity of flavor.
- 14 Botanicals: A blend of traditional and less common botanicals, including:
- Juniper
- Grapefruit peel
- Orange peel
- Lemon peel (fresh-frozen is used)
- Meadowsweet
- Vanilla
- Aniseed
- Orris root
- Licorice root
- Cocoa nibs
- Grains of paradise
- Cassia bark
- Nutmeg
- Coriander
Tasting Notes:
- Aroma: Often described as notably fresh, clean, and bright, with prominent sweet lemon tart notes harmonized by fresh juniper and aniseed. Hints of other citrus and subtle spice.
- Palate: Elegant and round texture. Initial juicy, sweet citrus flavor balanced by a more dominant juniper. Light spice and herbal notes provide complexity. Some detect pink grapefruit.
- Finish: Zesty and pronounced juniper finish with lingering licorice. Generally clean and smooth.
Awards and Ratings:
- Rated 90 points by Wine Enthusiast, noting its astringent, lemony scent and crisp feel, initially sweet and piney flavor, and relatively neutral, dry finish.
- Received a Platinum Medal from the Beverage Testing Institute.
Overall Impression:
Oxley Gin is considered a modern and innovative take on London Dry Gin, emphasizing freshness and bright citrus notes due to its cold distillation process and the use of fresh-frozen citrus peels. While it has a classic juniper backbone, the overall profile leans towards a vibrant and smooth gin that is well-suited for sipping and a variety of cocktails, particularly those where a clean and bright gin character is desired
