New Amsterdam Stratusphere London Dry

New Amsterdam Stratusphere London Dry Gin is the premium gin expression from New Amsterdam — produced with a blend of botanicals, citrus, and juniper that honors the 400-year tradition of London Dry gin while applying a modern California sensibility, producing a smooth, citrus-forward expression that can be enjoyed neat, in a classic Martini, or in any gin cocktail where approachability and citrus character are assets.

London Dry is a production specification requiring all botanicals to be distilled into the spirit without post-distillation flavor additions, with juniper as the dominant botanical. Stratusphere meets this standard while leading with citrus brightness alongside the juniper, making it more accessible than traditional heavily piney London Dry expressions.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does Stratusphere compare to traditional London Dry gins like Tanqueray or Beefeater?

Stratusphere is more accessible than classic London Dry expressions — the citrus character is more pronounced and the juniper is less dominant than Tanqueray or Beefeater, making it more approachable for those transitioning from vodka to gin. Traditional London Dry enthusiasts who want maximum juniper intensity should reach for the classics; those who want a smooth, citrus-forward London Dry will find Stratusphere more to their taste.
