Crisp, elegant and wonderfully versatile, it brings together traditional London Dry distillation and a carefully balanced selection of botanicals to create a gin that feels equally at home in a refreshing Gin \u0026amp; Tonic or a beautifully chilled Martini.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Vickers story began in London, where brothers John and Joseph Vickers established their distilling business in the early nineteenth century. First exported to Australia during the 1930s, Vickers began production under licence in Geelong, Victoria, during the 1940s, maintaining its connection to the original London Dry tradition.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAt the heart of Vickers is a proprietary botanical blend built around juniper berry, the defining ingredient of classic gin.
