Gordon’s 0.0% 700ml

Gordon's 0.0% is an alcohol-free spirit made with the same botanicals as Gordon's London Dry Gin. Juniper leads, as it should, so you can pour a proper G&T without the alcohol. It's a non-alcoholic gin alternative that looks and feels like the real thing in the glass.

Origin: Alexander Gordon started distilling in London in 1769, and Gordon's has been one of the best-known London Dry gins ever since. Diageo added the 0.0% version for drinkers who want the familiar flavour on nights off.

How it's made: Each botanical is steeped in water, heated and distilled on its own, then the distillates are blended. With no alcohol to carry the flavour, handling each one separately keeps the character clear.

Tasting notes: Piney juniper with bright citrus on the nose. Dry and herbal on the palate, with a gentle warmth of spice, and a clean, crisp finish. On its own it tastes lighter than the gin. With ice and tonic, it comes into its own.

How to serve: Fill a large glass with ice, add 50 ml, top with a good tonic and finish with a wedge of lime or a slice of orange. It also works as a base for alcohol-free cocktails and spritzes.

Who it's for: Drivers, lunchtimes, midweek evenings and anyone cutting back. It's also an easy bottle to keep behind the bar, so non-drinkers get something better than a soft drink.
