Our Take on Gordon’s London Dry Gin
At DubaiBottles, we believe that some spirits are the building blocks of great cocktails. Gordon’s London Dry Gin is the ultimate building block. This is the gin that defined the London Dry style. In fact, Alexander Gordon first perfected the recipe in 1769. It’s the world’s No. 1 international gin, loved for its crisp, juniper‑forward character.
This exceptional gin is crafted from a secret blend of handpicked wild juniper berries, coriander, angelica, and liquorice. The recipe is known to only six people in the world. It’s triple‑distilled for exceptional purity. The result is a gin that’s crisp, refreshing, and as versatile as it is iconic.

Serving Tips from Our Cellar
Gordon’s is best enjoyed well‑chilled. Store it in the fridge for a few hours before serving, or serve over plenty of ice. For the perfect G&T, fill a large glass with ice. Add 50 ml of Gordon’s. Top with premium tonic water and garnish with a wedge of fresh lime. If you’re ordering delivery in Dubai, we recommend chilling it as soon as it arrives for the perfect serving temperature.

Gordon’s was founded in 1769 by Alexander Gordon, a Scottish distiller. He set out to create a gin of exceptional quality. He believed that success lay in the perfect combination of pure distilled grain spirit and rich botanicals.
