Tasting Notes

Nose

Frankincense and clean juniper — the vacuum distillation creating remarkable purity and intensity

Palate

Individual botanical clarity — each of the twelve distilled separately then blended, frankincense adding resinous warmth, the scientific approach creating extraordinary precision

Finish

Frankincense warmth — London's smallest distillery's biggest flavour

First Impressions

Sacred London Dry uses vacuum distillation of each botanical individually in Ian Hart's Highgate home — frankincense is the signature botanical.

The Bottom Line

Sacred London Dry earns an 8 for frankincense vacuum-distilled precision from London's smallest distillery.
