Whitley Neill Connoisseur's Cut

Whitley Neill Connoisseur's Cut is a London Dry Gin created as a more intense and juniper-forward expression within the Whitley Neill portfolio. Developed for enthusiasts seeking a classic structure with heightened aromatic definition, it reflects the Neill family's long distilling heritage while adhering strictly to traditional London Dry principles.

The gin is distilled in England using a carefully balanced selection of botanicals. Juniper forms the backbone, supported by coriander for citrus lift, angelica root for earthy depth, and iris root for subtle floral structure. A trio of citrus elements - lemon peel, sweet orange and grapefruit - brings brightness and layered freshness, while liquorice adds gentle roundness and cohesion.

On the nose, the profile is crisp and expressive, led by piney juniper and fresh citrus zest. Grapefruit introduces a lightly bitter edge, complemented by softer floral tones and restrained spice.

The palate is dry, firm and well defined. Juniper remains prominent throughout, followed by lemon and orange notes that add clarity and vibrancy. Coriander and angelica contribute herbal complexity, while liquorice provides a discreet sweetness that balances the citrus-driven core without softening the dry character.

The finish is long, clean and warming, marked by lingering juniper, citrus oils and subtle spice. Whitley Neill Connoisseur's Cut is particularly suited to classic serves such as a traditional gin and tonic or a dry Martini, where its structure and intensity can be fully appreciated.
