MERIDOR London Dry Gin
Hand-picked Loire rose and elderflower soften a firm juniper core in the Loire Valley's first London Dry Gin, distilled without sugar.
Classic gin structure, softened by two Loire flowers.
Eight botanicals are distilled together: juniper, coriander, lemon peel, orris, cubeb, liquorice, rose petals and elderflower.
Eight botanicals meet once inside a nineteenth-century still.
One composition
All eight botanicals enter a single distillation rather than separate extracts.
Egrot copper still
Historic long-swan-neck pot stills integrate flowers, roots and spice.
No sugar
The London Dry structure is bottled at 41.9% with 0 g/L sugar.
Floral on the nose, classically juniper-led on the palate.
Rose and elderflower soften the first impression, but the palate is rich and juniper-led. Citrus, coriander and cubeb add brightness and spice before a clean, crisp and lightly peppery finish.
Floral enough to distinguish, classical enough to mix.
The house triple sec and Meridor create Combier's floral revision of the classic.
Juniper, rose and elderflower remain precise with dry vermouth.
A neutral tonic keeps the flowers above the classic dry core.
Verified recognition
Only distinctions verified for this exact expression are shown.
Eight botanicals, four directions with food
The food affinities for MERIDOR London Dry Gin are not combinations officially presented by the distillery, but a reading drawn from the characteristics recorded on this page. Built around the floral lift of rose and elderflower, the classic juniper-led structure, the bright spice of coriander and cubeb, and the sugar-free dry outline, they are organised into four directions.
These suggestions are a hypothesis built on structural cues drawn from food-pairing theory — overlapping aroma families creating synergy, acidity holding back richness, and matching an unsweetened spirit to the savour of the ingredients — and are not an official recommendation from the distillery.
Nineteenth-century copper stills, still shaping modern French gin.
Distillerie Combier began as a confectionery in Saumur in 1834. Its historic still room, designed by Gustave Eiffel's engineering team, remains in operation today.
