Described as being "a classic London Dry" this gin celebrates the 150th anniversary of a family owned British boating institution; Hobbs of Henley, established in 1870 by Harry Hobbs, who we're told was a gin-lover.

Mr Hobbs 150 is distilled with 9 botanicals including lemon peel, black pepper, grapefruit, elderflower, and green cardamom.
