In 2009, Bloom Gin released its premium London Dry Gin, with signature botanicals including honeysuckle, chamomile, and pomelo. Its light and floral taste set it apart from traditional gins.
Born from the passion of Joanne Moore, one of the world’s first female gin master distillers, the best Bloom Gins reflect her inspiration for the natural flora nestling in an English country garden.
The Bloom Gin collection has grown into four intriguing offerings, from its classic London Dry with a floral persona to several delicious fruity/floral varieties.
Best Bloom Gins
The best Bloom Gins blend traditional juniper, citrus and floral botanicals with rose, vanilla blossom, and even passionfruit for a seductive gin experience.

Review
The quintessential classic, Bloom London Dry Gin, is the foundation upon which the brand was built. It’s a harmonious blend of traditional and unexpected floral botanicals.
On The Nose
Juniper-forward with hints of citrus and floral undertones.

A tropical delight, this gin is a vibrant fusion of exotic passionfruit and the comforting creamy nuances of vanilla blossom.

An aromatic concoction, Bloom Raspberry & Rose Gin is a fruity/floral blend of sweet raspberries and the delicate aroma of rose. It’s love at first sip for me.

Juicy raspberries, citrus, a whisper of delicate rose petals.
On The Palate
Opens with the tartness of raspberries and is beautifully balanced with the slightly bitter note of rose and citrus zest. The finish is crisp and fruity.

Review
An ode to the East, this masterpiece gin marries the intoxicating scent of jasmine with the timeless elegance of rose to create a pink gin to remember.
On The Nose
Enticing aromas of sweet jasmine with a touch of rose elegance.
On The Palate
Clean juniper on the opening, then smooth notes of jasmine intertwine with the classic rose mid-palate. It’s a gin that I’d find myself reaching for on a sunny afternoon.
Best Served
I recommend Mediterranean tonic water and a lime wheel as the perfect partner for Bloom Jasmine & Rose Gin. Or perhaps try in a Summer Cup.

Conclusion
Bloom has truly outdone itself with its gin offerings. Every sip is a floral experience, and the bottles are beautifully presented. Whether you’re a gin beginner or a seasoned gin aficionado, there’s a Bloom Gin waiting for you.
The brand also offers a Bloom ready-to-drink collection, which I think is a somewhat civilised way to indulge in their gin collection. Plus, one of the gins is 0% ABV, so even the designated driver can partake.
