London’s enduring romance with gin is legendary, stretching back to the infamous 18th-century gin craze. Today, the city’s devotion to its signature spirit has been reimagined in a sophisticated new setting: The Gin Bar at Rosewood London, which now boasts the largest curated gin collection in the capital.
Nestled within the Holborn Dining Room, The Gin Bar invites connoisseurs and curious palates alike to explore an unrivaled menu featuring more than 400 gins from across the globe. With an impressive 30 varieties of tonic water—each selected for its unique botanical profile—guests can craft over 16,000 bespoke gin and tonic combinations, ensuring a dynamic tasting experience with every visit.
Gin selections start from £12 for a classic Rathbone London Dry, extending to £60 for an exceptionally rare 1950s Taplows Dry Gin, reflecting both heritage and exclusivity. The bar highlights over 120 British-distilled gins, including artisanal expressions like Northumberland Gin Company’s Steam Punk Gin and the fragrant Opihr Oriental Spiced Gin. The cocktail program showcases timeless favorites such as the Aviation, Martinez, and bespoke takes on the Vesper, all expertly prepared by the award-winning bar team.
Matthew Sloper, Bar Manager at Holborn Dining Room, shares: “Our vision is to celebrate the very best of British spirits and craftsmanship. With our ever-growing gin library and a carefully crafted selection of tonics—including our signature house-made tonic—we offer a truly unique experience for gin aficionados and newcomers alike.”
Since first opening its doors in 2014, Holborn Dining Room has become a destination for contemporary British cuisine, emphasizing seasonal, locally sourced ingredients served with innovative flair. The Gin Bar’s remarkable collection affirms Rosewood London’s status as a must-visit for anyone seeking the ultimate gin journey in the heart of the city.
