He opened a distillery in the Southwark area in 1769, later moving in 1786 to Clerkenwell. Legend has it that, long, long ago, a member of the Gordon clan saved the King of Scotland from a wild boar when out hunting. Ever since, the Gordons sported a boar's head on their coat of arms. Alexander Gordon's London Dry Gin proved successful. It has been distilled for more than 250 years, and its secret recipe handpicked juniper berries and other botanicals has remained unchanged even to this day. -------- The glass is in good condition. The glass stopper is very firmly in place. The glass stopper, which has air bubbles, has a little nibbling at the edge but is otherwise good. The old labels are original and have staining and obvious aging of the paper. Carefully packed for shipment to the buyer.
