Gordon's Alcohol Free Spirit | 0% vol | 70cl | Created with the Gin Botanicals Used in Gordon's London Dry Gin | Piny Juniper Character | For a Non Alcoholic Gordon's &Tonic

Product Information

This is thanks to a blend of distilled silver birch, orange peel, pimento, cascarilla bark, gentian, cardamom and subtle rhubarb root alongside those juniper-heavy notes. During this process, a neutral grain spirit — a plain alcohol — is added to a copper still along with a variety of botanicals.

Great in cocktails such as a Paloma or Tom Collins, or simply mixed with tonic, it should be no surprise to discover that Crossip has found its way onto menus at eateries Dishoom, Coppa Club and Daisy Green. Nevertheless, the orange notes work really well mixed into your favourite cocktails, and the more subtle pops of ginseng, juniper and exotic lemongrass give a traditional gin-like character. The legal definition of gin states that the liquid must contain an alcohol level (ABV) of at least 37. Lovely on a hot day, or any day, serve yourself a double measure with tonic, ice, slice and a berry or two, safe in the knowledge you’ll stay completely clear-headed. When creating these alcohol-free alternatives to gin, many of the best craft producers are using all the same strict methods, equipment and high-quality ingredients that they would to create a bottle of real gin.Using botanical ingredients to make macerated spirits, this Fresh Citrus variety is a heady mix of orange, lemon, grapefruit and a wallop of mandarin, plus plenty of fire from ginger extract and more than a pinch of cayenne, giving this gin that alcohol-burn without the alcohol.

These low-alcohol gins are usually around 4% ABV, which becomes negligible once it’s mixed with tonic water or other soft drinks. With an aroma that’s closest to the real thing, with plenty of juniper and forest botanicals on the nose, sipped straight up the KVÎST Rosa is rather more balanced.What may come as a surprise is that alcohol-free spirits cost the same – if not more – than their alcoholic counterparts. However, don’t go in expecting not to taste the difference between gin and their alcohol-free cousins; even apart from the lack of warmth from the alcohol, they are noticeably different drinks.

Created by mixologist Carl Anthony Brown using his 15 years of bartending experience, Crossip was born of his love for cocktails, but also for fitness and an awareness of mental health. There’s a hint of cinnamon to level things out and it’s tempered with wonderfully tart rhubarb and sweet raspberries. Every bottle purchased helps regenerate 1m² of seagrass in conjunction with the Marine Conservation Society, which makes it a win-win in our book. And here’s where the process changes from the usual: whereas a standard-strength gin will be diluted by about half, in these situations the liquid will be more heavily diluted by the distiller, by adding much more water, and this brings the overall alcohol content of the liquid much lower. As alcohol-free gin and low-alcohol drinks have less alcohol content, they are less damaging to your health in comparison to gin of a higher alcoholic content.Like all of our straight spirit reviews, we select the best 0% gins for the job by taste-testing them. This gin is CleanCo’s take on London Dry, with a crisp juniper flavour combined with lemon, coriander and grapefruit, along with earthy angelica (a celery-like herb) and orris (a fragrant, violet-scented root) for that familiar citrus/herbaceous gin flavour. This brand-new “no and low” range is a way for Clubbers to experiment with even more tasty new tipples! The vapour is then cooled and becomes liquid again; the distiller captures this liquid and dilutes it with water.

Alcohol-free gin or low-alcohol drinks are perfect for those who still want to enjoy a social drink without the sometimes negative effects associated with full ABV gin (when not enjoyed in moderation! Many are now being produced by gin distillers, and use many of the same processes as are involved in the creation of real gin. The juniper character is retained as a result of copper pot distilling, a Nordic tradition, which is what makes this feel like a true alcoholic gin. Here at Craft Gin Club, whilst it’s often gin o’clock, sometimes we gin-lovers just fancy a low - or no - alcoholic cocktail. And the reason for this is because the process to make such drinks – perfecting the blend, distillation, and then removing the alcohol – can be as involved as it is with the real stuff.So, one the base spirit and the botanicals have been added to the still, the liquid is heated, and the alcohol vapour created from the heating separates from the water, capturing the flavours of the botanicals as it moves through a series of tubes.
