At the beginning of 2005 there was a new addition to the Jenlain family, in the form of a special beer with 7.5% alcohol by volume. Little sister of the majestic Jenlain Ambree, this queen of beers, Jenlain Blonde is high on taste, like any self-respecting blond beer. A happy event for all traditional blond beer enthusiasts! Kept for 40 days in the vat, it matures slowly to release its full aroma & develop a fine, long-lasting head. After filtration, it takes on a splendid golden hue & is best enjoyed when served chilled at between 6 & 8°C. ...

Pine & lavender notes from Italian juniper rightly lead both the nose & palate of this traditionally styled gin. Coriander adds notes of ginger & sage, while orris root imparts subtle hints of parma violet. Sweet almond, liquorice & angelica soften & smooth while also adding further complexity to the flavour. Unlike so many gins these days, Bermondsey Gin is made to a very traditional London style. It is a true London distilled dry gin made only using the botanicals found in gins from the 1800s. Bermondsey Gin does not include cucumber, rose, grains of paradise or any of the other weird & wonderful botanicals introduced to gin making over the past couple of decades. Bermondsey gin is simply excellent, traditionally styled London distilled dry gin. Bermondsey Gin is the result of one man's experience & his dream of making his own gin. Back in 2001, Christian Jensen's banking job led to his living in Tokyo for a couple of years. One night after a particularly hard day at the bank he stumbled upon one of Tokyo's legendary hidden bars. Set in a high-rise building this tiny establishment comprised of one small, dimly lit room with an ancient plank that stood as the bar. The old man that stood behind it introduced himself as Oda-san, & said, you look like you could use a drink. He set a crystal tumbler containing a clear liquid, garnished with a lime peel in front of Christian & explained that it was a Naked Martini made with pure gin from your city, London, nothing more. The drink buzzed with flavours & over the following months Christian stopped at Oda-san's place almost nightly for the same elixir. Then one night, as Christian stopped in to say farewell to Oda-san, he handed him a gift; a bottle of gin, the label almost completely worn way except for 'don Gin. Take this, Oda-san said. The last bottle, the soul of London & its gin. He paused with longing, no one makes this anymore, & once it's gone... & his voice trailed off. Over the course of the following year, not a day went by without Christian thinking about Oda-san & the amazing gin. So started one man's quest to recreate the flavour of that authentic 19th century London dry gin. ...

Although Jensen's Old Tom is a faithful reproduction of an 1840s recipe, it is unique on the modern day gin market in that it is unsweetened, & in fact Christian Jensen found historical evidence that this is the most accurate recreation of the Old Toms that were being used in cocktail making in the 1800s. It is rooty, intensely complex & a fantastic base for many a cocktail, as well as making a divine gin & tonic! ...
