Jensen Bermondsey Gin is the brainchild of Christian Jensen, a Danish IT specialist who fell in love with old-style gins while working in Japan. After trying all the modern gins, Christian started tasting samples of older gins popular around the 1940s and earlier, when gin cocktails were in their heyday. He discovered that they were heavier and more flavoursome, a style he preferred to the more modern London Dry gins.
Christian returned to London determined to accept a challenge from the Japanese bartender friend who had introduced him to the older styles - to make his own gin in the traditional London style. He took a sample of a very old gin that he had been given by his friend to a specialist London distillery to see if they could create something similar.
After a long process during which numerous test batches were tested and rejected, Christian was finally able to approve one of the distiller’s recipes – it had just the combination of intense, pure, aromatic flavours and silky-textured weight on the palate that he was looking for. Since Christian is based in Bermondsey, he named the result Jensen’s London-Distilled Dry Bermondsey Gin.
