The story of Beefeater begins in 1863 when pharmacist James Burrough purchased the Chelsea Distillery in London for £400. By 1876, he had developed the recipe for Beefeater Gin, a bold, juniper-forward spirit that quickly became the flagship product of his company. The name "Beefeater" pays homage to the Yeoman Warders—popularly known as Beefeaters—who guard the Tower of London, symbolizing the gin's deep-rooted connection to British heritage.
Beefeater Blood Orange Gin is a vibrant and contemporary expression that marries the classic juniper-forward profile of a London Dry Gin with the zesty sweetness of blood orange. The palate is greeted with a bold citrus burst, where the bittersweet notes of blood orange harmonize with traditional botanicals, leading to a smooth and refreshing finish.
