Explorer's Gin is the flagship spirit from Downton Distillery, crafted on the West Wiltshire Downs using a combination of traditional distilling techniques and locally inspired botanicals. Designed for those who appreciate character, provenance and flavour, it is a contemporary London Dry Gin with a distinctly English identity. At its heart is locally grown western red cedar, harvested within sight of the distillery. This unusual botanical provides a rich, aromatic backbone that sets Explorer's Gin apart from more conventional juniper-led styles. Bright citrus notes from lemon verbena and carefully selected citrus peels bring freshness and lift, while pink peppercorn and Sichuan pepper add subtle warmth and complexity. The result is a gin that balances freshness, structure and depth. Juniper remains present throughout, but works alongside layers of herbal, citrus and woodland character to create a spirit that is both distinctive and versatile. Whether enjoyed in a classic G&T, a dry martini or a creative cocktail, Explorer's Gin offers a true taste of modern English craft distilling. WHY REFILLS?
