No.3 is a London Dry Gin distilled to the proprietary recipe of Berry Bros & Rudd, London's oldest wine and spirit merchant. The name No.3 refers to the address in St James Street, home to Berry Bros & Rudd since 1698. No.3 is unmistakably traditional London Dry Gin, Gin that tastes as Gin should, with juniper at its heart. All throughout the design and making of No.3, Berry Bros & Rudd summonsed the world's highest authorities in the art and science of gin distillation, determined that No.3 will be the last word in Gin for the perfect Dry Martini.
With juniper at its heart, No.3 unashamedly celebrates the integrity and character of traditional London Dry Gin, three fruits and three spices distilled in traditional copper pot stills. Juniper from Italy, not only gives Gin its name, but also the unmistakable taste of pine and lavender. Sweet Spanish orange peel provides freshness in the form of clean, crisp citrus. Grapefruit peel gives an extra zingy lift. Angelica root delivers an earthy quality and helps to make the gin dry. Moroccan coriander seed releases a lemon flavour and a spicy, slightly peppery finish.
TASTING NOTES
Bright, crisp and fresh with an uplifting welcome of juniper to the fore, supported by floral notes and spicy, warm cardamom. Plenty of citrus zing complemented by the gingery spiciness of coriander. The earthy dryness of angelica kicks in. And finally, cardamom pods which add a spicy, aromatic, yet warm bite.
