Beefeater Black is an organic drink produced from pure grain alcohol and distilled exclusively from natural botanicals, made by James Burrough Ltd in London, England.
A new variant pays homage to the ravens that guard the jewels of the Tower of London, the city where the brand has had its roots since 1820, as well as the Beefeater Guardians of the Tower in the heart of the city. The bottle design reflects their figures, now in black and gold, featuring the new recipe.
Beefeater Black is a meticulously balanced gin, a new interpretation of the famous Beefeater London Dry, taking the Beefeater experience to the next level. It retains the brand's signature urban London spirit, ideal for enjoying on any occasion, but in a more relaxed way, taking the time to explore and appreciate all its nuances.
The recipe, crafted by Desmond Payne, the world's most experienced master distiller, preserves the essence and 9 botanicals of the original recipe for the iconic Beefeater Dry, and includes two new hand-selected botanicals, including thyme and lemon verbena, which add herbal notes.
