BACK TO BACK
Our Steeplechase Signature London Dry Gin becomes the first gin in the history of The Gin Guide Awards to be named Best in Europe on two occasions.
Off the back of winning the Best in Europe award at the Gin Guide Awards and Taste of the West Champion Wine, Spirit and Liqueur in 2024, our Steeplechase Signature London Dry Gin has been named as the Best in Europe for a second year in a row at the Gin Guide Awards for 2025!
The Gin Guide Awards is the annual and global celebration of the exceptional spirits, distilleries and distillers in our industry. In 2025 the quality and diversity of entries has been truly exceptional, with hundreds of entries from 32 different countries. The Winners are selected through a rigorous blind tasting process conducted by an esteemed panel of distinguished gin experts, including distillers, spirits buyers for retailers, authors, and mixologists. Each gin’s appearance, aroma, flavour, mouthfeel, finish and overall quality are assessed to determine the highest scoring gins, based purely on the spirit itself and with no influence from branding, marketing or the country of origin. The Panel of Judges was bigger this year, including some judges who were brand new to the competition.
This is a truly special achievement, and something we do not underestimate as a brand.
Our Steeplechase Signature London Dry Gin has been named Best in Europe 2025 and therefore also Best in England 2025 and Best in Britain 2025!
This means that our gin achieved the highest score out of all entries from Europe.
Alongside this our Frodon English Garden Gin was named as a Winner in the Contemporary (up to 42% ABV) category, and our Dessie Vanilla, Fig and Clementine Gin was Highly Commended.
