Punches above its price. Top-third reviews at a bottom-third price. The Gin Is In gives it 4.5/5, vs. 3.8/5 for the typical gin (480 rated).
Bombay Original London Dry Gin (also labeled Bombay Dry Gin) is a classic London Dry gin from Bombay Spirits Co. (Bacardi), distilled at Laverstoke Mill, England, based on a recipe dating to 1761. Made from a grain base with vapor-infused botanicals — almond, angelica, cassia, coriander, lemon peel, licorice, orris root, and juniper — it is bottled at 43% ABV and is the lower-proof, more traditional sibling to the more widely known Bombay Sapphire.
