Sipsmith

London's first copper pot distillery in 200 years is on a mission to make gin in the heart of the city that was once famous, or infamous, for the stuff. Sipsmith's London Gin is an attempt to make a gin that wouldn't have seemed unfamiliar to an 18th century distiller, while the juniper-spiked VJOP has a high alcohol content of 57.7% ABV. They also make a range of flavoured gins and punches, and membership can earn you rare bottles from the distillery lab.

Sipsmith offers distillery tours, and the Sipper Club pairs gin with modern bistro cuisine from Charlotte's around the corner.
