Broker's London Dry Gin, 70cl, ABV 40%

Product Information

Alcoholic spirits originally found their place as a “cure all’ in medieval Europe. Gin was the next step, incorporating the medical benefits held in plants. Various botanical elements were thought to have different health giving properties most notably in the case of gin, juniper. When mixed with spiritus alcohol a rudimentary medicine was formed and became popular all over the continent. In short, for non-sweetened spirits the most important way to count calories is by looking at the proof. If it’s a 30% ABV vodka, it’s going to have fewer calories than a Navy Strength Gin. Because alcohol contributes to calories far more than sugar— even sweetened spirits will be more determined by their ABV.

It’s not really a fair question. Alcohol is not healthful and if you’re drinking you should be aware of that fact. Drinks: Makes a excellent martini, but remember to adjust your dilution and cooling to compensate for the slightly higher proof (in other words shake it a little longer). That being said, it will chill better than most as the higher proof seems to keep the botanicals blended better at a colder temperature than most and gives you a lovely molten glass appearance. It will cater to those martini drinkers who either remember the older style of gin (and martinis), or aspire to know what it was (and is)-a little less subtle, (but balanced), more body for the old style crowd or someone who wants to try something a bit different. One of my favorites for a gin and tonic which can actually be a more difficult drink for a gin to stand out in.Until the industry and its regulatory authorities catch up and begin being more transparent about nutrition information, this is perhaps the best shorthand for figuring out calories. For sugar content, look for the designation “dry.” In the European Union it is regulated that “a distilled gin may be designated as ‘dry’ if it does not add more than 0.1 grams of sweetening products per liter.” This is part of the London Dry definition as well. But even gins that don’t explicitly say it are rarely sweetened above the 0.1g/L threshold. Gordon’s Pink Gin (37.5%) from https://www.masterofmalt.com/gin/gordons/gordons-pink-gin/?srh=1 ( ) Broker’s Gin was launched in the 1990’s. Supposedly created based on an early 18th century recipe— botanically, probably not in terms of base spirit, the base spirit is clean and clearly column distilled— it’s known as one of the bigger juniper-forward classic-style gins on the market today.

I tried it in a Negroni, and found that those earthy notes were amplified: think cinnamon merengue, or carmelized oranges with a touch of fresh juniper. Overall, Broker’s Gin I started out with the Gin and Tonic and it quite much caught my fancy. Bright notes of juniper and a touch of citrus. Well balanced with the tonic water.

While not every brand discloses their calorie and sugar content, here is a list of some major brands and producers which have made gin calorie and sugar content information public. Langley distillery uses only traditional pot stills for the production of Brokers Gin. This is because pot stills are better for extracting maximum flavour from the botanicals in a traditional hand-crafted fashion. The distillery has a mini-still, which is used for making small batches of gin from different recipes. The recipe for Broker’s Gin is 200 years old and was chosen after taste-testing against several newer recipes. First Impression: Juniper, witchhazel and cassia, followed with citrus.The high proof gives it more alcohol bite but this is to be expected. Even at 94 proof though, this gin shows a subtlety of blending. Because of this close association, for gins (and spirits) with no added sweetening or other ingredients, you see a close correlation between ABV and calorie content. Made in a 200 year-old gin distillery outside London- triple-distilled spirit is used to macerate/steep the ingredients which are then distilled a 4th time in a copper pot still.

However, if your goal is to merely count calories and watch your caloric count look to the proof of the spirit. Sip your spirits neat, or with soda water. Broker’s Gin is very flavorful and very bright. Sweet bright citrus on the nose, and a bright dose of juniper as well. Possibly a hint of spice and florals around the edges, but it maintains a straightforward classic approach with a nice bit of juniper character. Broker’s Gin is made with a combination of botanicals ( herbs, spices and fruit). It is available in two strengths: 40% and 47% alc/vol (80 proof and 94 proof) in 1.75L, 1.0L, 750ml, 700ml and 50ml sizes.
