Drop of the Day – Hayman’s Gin

The story of Hayman’s started way back in 1863, when current family members great-great-grandfather pioneered the distinctive taste of London Dry Gin.  Fast forward 160 years, and the London Dry style has become one of the most popular gins on the planet. The Hayman's Gin team are still proud to put his original recipe in every bottle.

As an independent family business, they really care about what they make, who they work with and the people who enjoy their gin. Family is at the heart of everything they do. The Hayman’s London Distillery is home to tours, cocktail masterclasses and more, but above all it’s where they make their great-tasting gins, distilling ten botanicals over two full days in gleaming copper stills named after female family members Marjorie, Karin and Miranda.  

It’s also where family history meets the future. This is where they innovate and experiment to find new flavours and expressions, such as Hayman’s London Light which offers a low alcohol G&T but with no compromise on taste. And it’s where they find new ways to make their business sustainable, such as sourcing renewable ingredients and reducing carbon emissions. They are proud to now be B Corp certified, meeting the highest standards of social and environmental performance and committed to having a positive impact on our people and planet.

Dish Recipe Pairings:
We love leaning in to Indian-inspired recipes when drinking Hayman’s, specifically with tonic, where the spice heavy flavours marry well with the botanicals of gin. We recommend trying our Tikka Chicken Drumsticks with Crunchy Seeded Topping and Saffron Yoghurt or our Slow-roasted Indian Spiced Lamb Shoulder.

If you’re a martini fan, then we recommend pairing the gin with your favourite bar snacks like our Grilled Sourdough with Prosciutto and Stracciatella or our Chorizo-stuffed Fried Green Olives.
