Sipsmith is a London-based gin distillery founded in 2009, marking a significant moment in British spirits production as the first copper pot distillery to open in London in nearly 200 years. The company operates from Chiswick in West London, where they produce small-batch gin using traditional copper pot stills named Prudence, Patience, and Constance. Their approach centers on traditional London Dry gin production methods, emphasizing botanical balance and artisanal craftsmanship.

The distillery's London Dry gin follows the classic style that made London the gin capital of the world during the 18th and 19th centuries. London Dry gin must be distilled to at least 70% alcohol by volume and redistilled with botanicals, with no artificial flavors or colors added after distillation. Sipsmith's interpretation typically features juniper as the dominant botanical, supported by traditional ingredients like coriander seed, angelica root, and citrus peels, creating the crisp, clean profile characteristic of the London Dry category.

Sipsmith's core range includes their flagship London Dry Gin, which established their reputation for producing gin that honors traditional methods while appealing to contemporary palates. The distillery has played a notable role in London's gin renaissance, helping to revive small-scale gin production in the capital after decades of industrial dominance.
