Thomas Dakin is considered one of the pioneers of Gin when he first started his Distillery on Bridge Street, Warrington in 1761 at the age of 25! The main flavours in this ‘world class’ spirit are the classic gin botanicals of juniper, citrus and spice. Per più di due secoli nessuna nave della flotta britannica avrebbe mai lasciato il porto senza una bottiglia di questo gin. A new addition to our list, this colour-changing gin is a premium brand that would make a fantastic gift.

Back in the UK a new breed of bartender was emerging and a young Dick Bradsell, then working at working at Fred’s Club, was inspired to create his now famous Bramble cocktail using the new gin. This gave the young entrepreneur, Dakin, a ready supply of the botanicals and other raw ingredients he needed to make a quality gin. Diventato popolare fin dalla metà del 1500 grazie al condottiero olandese Guglielmo I d'Orange, il gin in Inghilterra è ancora oggi il distillato più bevuto di tutto il paese ed è considerato bevanda nazionale. If you are looking for a slightly cheaper tipple (that is still fantastic) then head to our best supermarket gin list, where we've done hundreds of hours of taste testing. So it’s no surprise that the cocktail competitions have already started – with such a versatile gin, it’s one that a good bartender can have a lot of fun with – almost as much fun as the person drinking their creation.

Despite the many changes in ownership and developments in distilling technology, the company continued to make Greenall's Gin to Thomas Dakin’s 1761 recipe – as indeed it still does to this day. The vapour passes through these botanicals, so extracting their essential aromatic oils without cooking or denaturing them.
