In 1689 Dutch King William of Orange was proclaimed King of England. He was largely responsible for introducing the British to gin and even went so far as to make his own. The 1689 Authentic Dutch Dry Gin is based on the King’s original recipe, uncovered from the British Library. But while all the ingredients were listed, the quantities were coded. Together with the experienced distillers of Herman Jansen in Schiedam they nonetheless created a delicious gin based on the original ingredients, including red quince, juniper, lemon peel and aniseed. 42% Vol. |

Sir Edmond is a Dutch gin produced by Herman Jansen, a company that traces its heritage all the way back to 1777. Sir Edmond Gin has all the usual botanicals like juniper, angelica and cardamom, but vanilla is a bit of an odd duck.
