Beefeater London Dry Gin is one of the world's most iconic gin brands, originally created by James Burrough in London during the 1860s. The name 'Beefeater' refers to the Yeomen Warders who guard the Tower of London, a symbol deeply tied to its British identity. For decades, it was famously distilled at the Beefeater Distillery in Kennington, South London.

Today, the brand is owned by the French spirits giant Pernod Ricard, which acquired it as part of the Allied Domecq acquisition in 2005. While the parent company is based in France, the gin remains a quintessentially British product, continuing its heritage of distillation in the heart of London to maintain its 'London Dry' status and traditional flavor profile.
