Bombay®
Original Dry Gin
While gin best typifies chic and sophistication,
it was BOMBAY ORIGINAL
DRY GIN that taught all the other
performers how to act. It is one of the worlds most venerable
brands of London Gin, one that can be found on back bars across
the globe. Now in its third century, Bombay Original is considered
a must have in any gin enthusiasts repertoire.
The brand originated in 1761 and to this
day is still made using the same distilling techniques and according
to the same closely guarded recipe of botanicals. The gin is produced
using a series of Carter Head alembic stills, which are specifically
designed for making gin. The process begins with producing pure,
neutral grain spirits. It is then redistilled with eight botanicals
and aromatics using a unique method called vapor infusion. The 86
proof result is a magnificently dry and flavorful spirit.
Tasting Bombay Original for the first time
is like awakening taste buds that long ago went dormant. The gin
has a lightweight body, satin-like texture and a compact, yet eminently
pleasing herbal bouquet. It washes over the palate with hardly a
trace of heat and slowly subsides into a flavor-enriched finale.
The singular character of Bombay Original
is ideally enjoyed chilled,
or better yet with a splash of crisp tonic water.
